In their words

  • Vietor said Vance had it backwards: the JCPOA shipped Iran's stockpile abroad, while the new deal keeps it in-country.

    “Under the JCPOA, they shipped out 97% of their stockpile. They went to Russia where they disposed of it”

  • Vietor urged Democrats to defend the JCPOA as better than Trump's deal, citing the removal of Iran's stockpile and UN Security Council backing.

    “I want Democrats to just stand up and support the JCPOA and say that it was better”

  • Vietor argues Trump will at best get a deal similar to the JCPOA that he could have obtained without war.

    “it sounds like Trump is maybe at best going to get a similar deal after launching this disastrous war that he could have gotten if he just tried to renegotiate”

  • Vietor notes Iran's highly enriched uranium was produced after Trump exited the JCPOA, making it a problem Trump created.

    “all of that material was enriched after Trump pulled out of the JCPOA. So it's a problem he created and now is probably not going to solve”
