Trump war on Iran deal put US at risk of isolation

It is largely believe that US President Donald Trump is trying to find a way to kill the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. But analysts believe this could lead to Washington’s isolation. Many also believe that attempts by US President Donald Trump to undermine an ambitious nuclear agreement with Iran would tarnish the already distorted image of Washington worldwide.

Concerns over new Trump plan over US nukes policy

Donald Trump wants to make nuclear weapons easier to use, according to the Huffington Post website which has published a leaked draft of his administration's Nuclear Posture Review (NPR). The document pushes for additional "flexible" and "low-yield" nuclear weapons in the US arsenal. While nuclear weapons are conventionally supposed to act as a deterrent, the leaked draft shows that the US might use them against non-nuclear technologies.
