An analyst says US President Donald Trump’s strategy on Iran nuclear deal is “a sign of weakness” on his part, adding that the problem is that “he has got no weight to throw around.”

“I think this is a desperate attempt on his part, first of all to get the press on his side with an issue that he will consider popular with them and secondly to throw the whole issue then back to the Congress because they are the ones who have to vote on it then. This will shut off Congress’s criticism of him and that will probably give him some breathing space for other things he is doing,” E. Michael Jones, editor of Culture Wars Online Magazine told PressTV in an interview on Saturday.
