Trump faces fresh bipartisan criticism on Iran deal as Vance hails peace talks

Objections comes as Trump threatens to renew attacks on Iran if it doesn't rein in its proxy in Lebanon

US political figures from left and right voiced fresh objections on Sunday to Donald Trump's provisional deal with Iran - even as the US president made fresh threats while Vice-President JD Vance hailed progress during the first round of direct peace talks in Switzerland.

Senator John Cornyn, a Texas Republican who recently lost his primary battle for re-election, posted a line on X from a Wall Street Journal article on how rogue regimes evade US economic warfare. It said: Iran's ability to withstand sanctions so far exposes a hard fact for Washington: economic pressure has largely failed to cow rogue regimes, as they game out more ways to sidestep US restrictions."
