WASHINGTON — The Donald Trump administration waived nuclear-related sanctions on Iran today, even as senior administration officials stressed the action should not be seen as a sign that the president will ultimately support his predecessor’s nuclear agreement with Tehran.
Trump has not yet decided whether he will certify Iran’s continued compliance with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) next month, US officials said.
