Republican vice-presidential nominee JD Vance has defended Donald Trump’s 2018 withdrawal from the Iran nuclear agreement, sparking debate over the future of US-Israeli relations. Critics contend that exiting the deal allowed Iran to accelerate its nuclear enrichment program, while Vance argues the original agreement was insufficient to curb Tehran’s regional influence. These remarks highlight a potential shift in US foreign policy, emphasizing a strategy of strong deterrence and increased strategic autonomy for Israel in managing Middle Eastern security challenges.
- JD Vance defended the decision to exit the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), rejecting claims that the withdrawal destabilized the region.
- Critics of the withdrawal maintain that it freed Iran from enrichment limits, bringing the nation closer to developing nuclear weapons capability.
- Vance’s foreign policy stance suggests a preference for a US-Israel relationship that encourages Israeli military independence while maintaining robust US backing.
- The proposed approach emphasizes containment and regional deterrence over diplomatic renegotiations with the Iranian government.

They went into this war expecting to topple the Iranian regime, but instead came out with damaged relationships among their own allies. What a clown show.
Who would say that committing genocide and destroying every attwmpt for peace qould leave you without friends…?
Well, kinda…Germany is ALWAYS happy to support any genocide, especially if they think it takes the blame for the one before.
lets all protest to get these thugs locked up now
iran verry old old school
so dont be surprise what they hide
If Germany can grow the balls and oppose Genocide in Gaza!
do not mistake usa politicians and media being controlled by israel with the citizens of the usa – genocide of the palestine people, epstein, iran, and taking over our media and colleges – israel does not have the support of the usa citizens – and a huge demographic of trump supporters are very anti israel ..
I thought the war was between US & Israel vs Iran ,so should the agreement be between the three!
1:23 yeah, currently it isn't true because 3vwn now he's not which was the only actuve heqd of state
It was no more than a memorandum a memo. Just words on a page for the American stock market….nothing solid nothing actionable just more caca…
Finally Finally…the enemy of the world is being exposed. Scapegoating other nations for they're has come to an end. Iran has never been an enemy of anyone. Isreal is the first enemy of America and the world .They manipulate and make America fight bogus wars. They must behave or face it
Vance screamed at zelensky b4, but witness how zelensky is performing now. Vance is a failure
Very unexpected after 3 years of genocide
🇮🇱🕊️JD Vance is currently campaigning for himself as the next USA president. He is softening the Republican’s support of Israel, inasmuch as cultivating “swing-votes” from present Democrats.
Vance is a survivor and will trample any opposition to death, in his race to the Oval Office. Vance believes he must distance the Republicans from Israel… and diminish his opponent— Marco Rubio. It’s an internal White House war.
Israel is Vance’s scapegoat. 🕊️🇮🇱🕊️🇮🇱🕊️🇮🇱🕊️🇮🇱🕊️
Thinking of how many scientists, Iran leaders and schoolgirls irael has murdered, it’s pretty understandable the Israelis ar afraid of Iran.
It actually is true, David, that DJT is the only head of state sympathetic to Israel.
I think the spell here has finally broken. Someone else can fight their fights for them and give them 3 trillion over 30 years
Israel’s security is based on the occupation of the Palestinians plane and simple. Israel cannot and will not be safe untill it stop the occupation of millions it’s almost as if Israel should be allowed to do as it pleases while the occupation is going on
Hmmm interesting developments with America's greatest ally. Greatest in what way exactly?
Threatening t withdraw weapons support. First thing Israel will do is delete the Palestinians. It'll be harder without planes and bombs, but it can be done.
Israel also has Germany, as its vassal state…
Germany is still a good friend to Isr@el in spite of it being an apartheid state that's committed war crimes must I also mention genocide in Gaza ?
We still need to block 🚩 Sect 224 in the U.S. Senate
'National Defense Authorization Act' to
prevent merger of U.S. & Israeli armies, or none of this matters.
Stand with Israel, Vance is right ,the only ally left is the lion ,it self lsrael but they have a friend usa
Perhaps there is an ironic symmetry here: what other friends does the US have, other than Israel? 🤔
America first not Israel !!!!
First time JD speaks the truth
Looks like Bibi's controller is getting low on power.
The “journalist” & the “expert” both let their mask slip & showed bias during this. They really oughta be more careful they are supposed to be neutral in their delivering of the news. Not lowkey propagandist.
for once vance is right
Thanks for pointing out that germany also supports the genocide
1:09 Pathetic and blatant example of twisting of words by the host. Vance also added further at 0:44 "the only powerful ally".
You know things are REALLY bad when JD Vance is making a modicum of sense.
Vance is not Trump
The US is now doing more for Iran than they are Israel! 😵💫 Was completely inevitable with Mango in charge. Get ready for him to throw Israel under the bus.
I hate Trump and his useless war. But I hate Israel even more. I hate to give credit to Vance, but he spoke out against them. Well done.
Vance tries to replace the concept of vassal with the concept of ally.😂😂🤣🤣
Terrorist or not, at this very moment Hezbollah is fighting an occupation army – it's Israel on Lebanon grounds, not viceversa.
A genocidal state has no right to exist
Why do none of the news reports even dare to touch upon the fact that Israel has nukes and has killed people in failed attempts to keep this a secret? DW and other news channels need improve their journalistic ethics.
I always liked Vance.
Israel 🇮🇱 politicians claim they're paying for weapons yet they knew nothing about it
about time USA stood up to israel
Isreal needs to stop preventing the progress of peace, simple as that.
What are Israeli intentions?US to announce that Syria, Lebanon, Palestine are parts of Israel and the people living their should be legally killed by Israeli forces?The others should not have any right of self defence or they'll be labelled as terrorists?
Your guest Sacha is having a very hard time adaptingt to new reality it seems 🙂
