TEHRAN, Nov. 07 (MNA) – US Democratic presidential contender Bernie Sanders urged Washington for a return to the nuclear accord with Iran.

 “We had a deal in place that capped Iran’s nuclear program, which Trump recklessly violated,” Sanders said. “We should rejoin the JCPOA immediately and talk to Iran about other regional issues.”

Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden has yet to comment on the decision, but the former VP has taken a similar stance on the nuclear deal previously, stating it made “no sense at all” to walk away from it, Russia Today reported.
