Alan Woods – editor of In Defence of Marxism – discusses Trump's decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal and reintroduce sanctions. In taking this step, the US President is throwing a lit match onto an already highly-flammable situation.

Far from bringing stability or security to the people of Iran and the wider Middle East, Trump's actions will only add fuel to the fire.
