Obama admin officials slam Trump's Iran deal announcement
Washington (CNN) Former Obama administration officials are decrying  President Donald Trump 's announcement that  he  will potentially halt the US' participation in the Iran nuclear deal  and are warning that the move could jeopardize the United States' position at the negotiating table for future agreements.
 Trump  formally announced on Friday  he  would pull out of the agreement completely if Congress and US allies do not work to address "the deal's many serious flaws."
Citing "multiple violations of the agreement "  Trump  said Iran had failed to meet  its  end of the 2015 deal. However  the International Atomic Energy Agency  American allies and the US government all have said Tehran is complying with the official pact.
Biden is one of several former officials from the Obama era -- the administration under which the deal was constructed -- who responded to  Trump  and shared their own set of concerns regarding the US' new approach.
In a statement issued on Friday  former Secretary of State John Kerry said  Trump 's decision is "creating an international crisis."
"Essentially   Trump  is urging Congress to do something that could precipitate a nuclear crisis with Iran at the same time that  he  is faced with a significant crisis on the Korean peninsula " Rhodes said. "What  Trump  is doing with Iran is going to make it that much harder for  him  to achieve any diplomatic resolution with North Korea."
When criticizing the deal   Trump  said  he  took issue with the "sunset" provision. But former Obama officials pushed back.
"I think that this is entirely about  Trump 's annoyance with the certification process  which forces  him  to certify that Iran is complying with the deal  that the deal is working  and that all of  his  bombastic rhetoric about the deal has been based in dishonesty " Rhodes said.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani responded to  Trump  shortly after his announcement  and said it was not only up to  Trump .
