Fox News Poll Finds 64% Doubt Iran Deal Will Halt Nuclear Program

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 17

Summary

  • Sixty-four percent of voters say a U.S.-Iran peace agreement is unlikely to stop Tehran from pursuing nuclear weapons, essentially unchanged from 63% who said the same after the 2015 Obama-era deal.
  • Fifty-eight percent also say the U.S. was wrong to take military action against Iran in February, while 70% are extremely or very worried tensions could turn into a long-term American military commitment.
  • Seventy-six percent call ending Iran’s nuclear program important and 87% prioritize avoiding a prolonged conflict, both up 7 points since earlier this year; 64% disapprove of Trump’s handling of Iran.
  • The June 12-15 poll was mostly completed before Washington announced a memorandum with Iran that included reopening the Strait of Hormuz and a 60-day ceasefire, suggesting views may not fully reflect that deal.
  • Beyond Iran, 59% support continued U.S. aid to Ukraine and 54% side more with Israelis than Palestinians, underscoring how sharply partisan foreign-policy attitudes remain.
