Trump administration to reinstate all Iran sanctions

On November 2nd, 2018 the Trump administration has decided to reinstate all the US sanctions on Iran in the 2015 nuclear deal. Trump had removed from the deal earlier this May but the result is that 8 other countries will not be penalized from importing oil from Iran. Trump has accused Iran from not stopping the production of missile programs and intervening in Yemen and Syria. However, on the flip ironically Iran accused Trump of being a "raging and waging psychological warfare". This has been the highest sanctions on Iran to date and one of the toughest that Trump has initiated. I think the future of the deal will remain as it is until a new administration or President comes along. There are many factors that could possibly change Trump's mind in taking off the sanctions on Iran.
