for negotiation. that is out of the question. one of the things the iranians say this is not a deal with the u.s. and iran. this is the deal with the u.s., iran and several other countries as well. not something that will be easy to process of renegotiate going. if you speak to people on the ground in iran, we talked to many people in the country. they are all concerned about some of the things that donald trump said on the campaign trail and he wants to renegotiate the nuclear agreement and get tougher on iran. for people in the country, the nuclear agreement hadn t brought the economic benefits they hoped they would get so far. there is no one here who wants to get rid of that nuclear agreement as well. one of the interesting things i found, i spoke to real hard liners anti-american here in the country. they say they believe that maybe donald trump is actually someone that they can do business with. they point to the fact he is a president who was a businessman
discussed on the calls, one, exchanging holiday greetings and setting up a phone call with president trump and vladimir putin. jim sciutto, thank you. 48 minutes past the hour. yahoo! s deal with verizon is delayed. and wireless carriers making a big deal of its own. we get a check of cnn money next. take one.
ceos of large multinational corporations. if mr. trump is serious about that, i would be delighted. a liberal and socialist likes the killing of the tpp. some senators like john mccain says not so much. it creates china to reopen the rules of the economic rules. and the move could shape the future of global trade. the agreement was 12 countries around the pacific slashing tariffs. senator mccain says one country you don t see is china. this is a pivot. this deal was a way to counter china s growing influence. now president trump s move to withdraw leaves china to fill that void. it is already moving that way and talking with the countries and negotiating its own deal.
the u.s. negotiated three pro r protections. labor laws and environmental laws and intellectual property. a new agreement do produce cheaper goods and fewer worker rights. the big question will the remaining 11 nations press forward? australia not committing either way. officials from japan and singapore, the deal structured without the u.s. is essentially dead. it would open some of the markets with lower tariffs for u.s. goods. it would be good for u.s. workers and factories. one irony here, the president says he wants to be tough on china. one that president obama thought would be tough is tpp. it is gone. you get the sense where the president is headed. he says he is committed to
it s seen as kind of mean if you ask about their health. or sexist. it s important and one that should be considered. they asked senator mccain when he was running and there were questions about his health, about his longevity and if he would be able to serve if it became an issue. if you were going to ask that of senator mccain, it should be asked of secretary of state hillary clinton. and bernie. we ll have to ask about split ends. i m just going to join in the company here and ask tough questions, and the toughest question, i think, would have to do with the fact that she s flip-flopped recently on tpp, on the trans-pacific partnership deal. where she said it was, yeah, definitely going to open up markets to the u.s., it s going to counter china influence in asia. that s a big flip, and i think bernie sanders is going to mention this, too. but the biggest question i would have for her comes to an issue that for me is so central.
