Nikki Haley: US to ‘stay’ in Iran nuke deal, aim to ‘make it better’

(Worthy News) – The US ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, said on Sunday that the US would ‘stay’ in the Iranian nuclear agreement negotiated between the world powers, including the US, and Iran, but ‘aim to make it better.’

Her comments came two days after US President Donald Trump announced that he would not recertify the landmark agreement to Congress and would roll out a more hawkish approach toward Tehran.

“I think right now you are going to see us stay in the deal,” Haley said during an interview on NBC’s “Meet The Press” on Sunday.

“What we hope is that we can improve the situation,” she added. “And that’s the goal. So I think right now, we’re in the deal to see how we can make it better. And that’s the goal. It’s not that we’re getting out of the deal. We’re just trying to make the situation better so that the American people feel safer,” she said.
