US: Nuclear weapons are not Iran's only problem

[Drumboy44]

Following US President Trump’s inauguration, there was uncertainty regarding the administration’s position on Iran, especially as far as the P5+1 Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) was concerned. But Trump’s strong campaign-trail statements about ripping up the “worst deal ever negotiated” have receded to the background. What currently remains at the forefront is no doubt acute dissatisfaction with the nuclear deal, but rather than ripping it up, the administration has stated that it wants to review the deal in the context of overall U.S. policy toward Iran

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee has approved bipartisan legislation that would authorize the president to levy new penalties on Iran while keeping the landmark nuclear deal in place.
Lawmakers voted 18-3 on Thursday to pass the bill.
The legislation would impose mandatory sanctions on people involved in Iran's ballistic missile program and anyone who does business with them.
The measure would punish Iran's Revolutionary Guards and enforce an arms embargo.
