The future of the international nuclear agreement between Iran and leading nations is highly uncertain, and there is a risk that it could be scrapped altogether. Europe, Russia and China are putting immense pressure on Mr Trump’s administration to keep the agreement intact, but the US president has called on the US Congress and its European counterparts to “fix” the agreement and impose major new concessions on Iran, or he will follow through on threats to pull the US out. International businesses and investors are becoming increasingly cautious in their engagement with Iran owing to this increased uncertainty and heightened geopolitical tensions in the area.

Dear David,

The future of the international nuclear agreement between Iran and leading nations is highly uncertain, and there is a risk that it could be scrapped altogether. Europe, Russia and China are putting immense pressure on Mr Trump’s administration to keep the agreement intact, but the US president has called on the US Congress and its European counterparts to “fix” the agreement, or he will follow through on threats to pull the US out. International businesses and investors are becoming increasingly cautious in their engagement with Iran given this increased uncertainty and heightened geopolitical tensions in the area.
