French President Emmanuel Macron is considering visiting Iran after speaking by phone with his Iranian counterpart as US President Donald Trump said he was “decertifying” the nuclear deal with Tehran, the Elysee presidential office said on Friday.

Macron told Iranian President Hassan Rouhani that France remained committed to the 2015 nuclear agreement which, besides the United States, was also negotiated with Britain, China, Russia and Germany.

“A trip to Iran by the president, at the invitation of President Rouhani, has been considered,” the Elysée said, while the Iranian presidential website said the visit would happen next year.

Super-Macron will save us.

This is all scripted out....some EU-versus-US opera set with Iran in the landscape.

They would have invited Merkel, but she’s a woman and that just wouldn’t do.

Obama not only gave our “friendly*” allies permission to deal with Iran, he sent a plane full of American cash to Iran. These “allies” have been wearing Make Britain Great Again and Make Germany Great Again hats for a lot longer than America has had a similar hat. Business is all they care about. Being the one to get what they can from a deal is what they want.

*Winston Churchill said, “Nations don’t have friends. Nations have common interests.” When it comes to who gets the money our “allies’” interests peel away from America’s.

Surely, Macron will get a tour of the tunnels and spinning centrifuges.

Perhaps, Macron can propose having Iran join the EU, since there are so many colonial settlements from the Middle East in Western Europe.       /sarc

France, where Khomeini hid out after he was expelled from Iran; and France from where he remotely ran the operations to begin the “revolt” (putsch) against the Shah. Let’s not forget that.

It is pretty obvious that these idiot Europeans (and US Democrats) learned nothing from the lead up to WWII.
