As I said I do not hink we should have pulled out. I just got a chuckle over "the rest of the world won't like us now" spin. Hell, show the US that you can do it without them if you don't like them or is the rest of the world that reliant on us? I doubt we'd just stop an agreement made just because Germany pulled out.
Well, considering my spin isn't "the rest of the world won't like us now," that really doesn't matter. As for the end, it all depends on how the agreement was written. Some agreements end when one party pulls out, some don't and continue with the remaining signatories. I don't know what the case is here, but I do know that Iran was saying they would start their program up again and have now backed off slightly, saying they will try to come to an agreement with the other parties. The issue will become how much can they give that will make up economically for the sanctions imposed by the US, which is what Iran will be looking at.
