Trump comments on Iran's uranium enrichment

Iran's uranium enrichment is a very bad step for Tehran-Washington relations, U.S. President Donald Trump said.

Trump also urged Iran to turn over former FBI agent Robert Levinson, who disappeared in 2007 on an unauthorized CIA mission.

“If Iran is able to turn over to the U.S. kidnapped former FBI Agent Robert A. Levinson, who has been missing in Iran for 12 years, it would be a very positive step,” the president wrote on Twitter.

He used the rest of his tweet to return to a recurring theme on Iran: “At the same time, upon information and belief, Iran is, and has been, enriching uranium. That would be a very bad step!”

Trump pulled the U.S. last year unilaterally out of Iran's 2015 nuclear deal, which saw Tehran limit - but not stop - its enrichment of uranium in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions, the Daily Mail recalls.
