Mike Pence, former vice president under Donald Trump, said he respects the role of the vice president but knows that any potential agreement with Iran would be driven by Trump, who gave it the green light. Pence added that if he were still serving alongside Trump, he would urge a return to the original approach toward Iran – achieving peace through strength. He criticized the rumored agreement, calling it reminiscent of appeasement and describing it as more than just a mistake, but a serious misstep.
