French president worried about US pullout from Iran Deal
IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Tehran, May 13, IRNA -- In a phone conversation with his US counterpart, French President Immanuel Macron said that he is worried about tensions in the Middle East in the aftermath of US withdrawal from Iran Deal.
Macron has called his friend and ally US President Donald Trump to say he's very worried about tensions in the Middle East, after Trump's decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear accord, according to CBS News.
Macron's office said the two leaders spoke Saturday and the French leader expressed his 'great concern about stability' in the region.
Macron strongly opposes Trump's pullout from the 2015 global deal curbing Iran's nuclear activities.
Last month, Macron told CBS that he believed Trump would exit the deal for 'domestic reasons.'
Speaking to a German magazine last week, Macron said that Trump's withdrawal from the deal is a mistake.
Iran Deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, was signed by Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany in 2015. Trump announced on Tuesday that he was quitting the deal.
Only Saudi Arabia, and the Zionist regime expressed pleasure with the US decision.
