French President Macron: do not know what Trump will decide on Iran deal

French President Emmanuel Macron was reported by Reuters on Wednesday, as saying that he did not know what the US President Trump would decide over a 2015 nuclear deal.

While speaking in Sydney, Macron noted: “I don’t know what the U.S. president will decide on the 12th May.”

Macron said he had pushed the idea of a much broader Iran agreement with Trump, which was received “very positively”.

“I just want to say whatever the decision will be, we will have to prepare such a broader negotiation and a broader deal because I think nobody wants a war in the region, and nobody wants an escalation in terms of tension in the region,” Macron added.
