Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who's out with a new book, "Political Risk: How Businesses and Organizations Can Anticipate Global Insecurity," joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss Israel's claims against Iran and how the U.S. should respond. CBS's Nora O'Donnell asked her if she's seen any evidence that Iran has violated the 2015 accord.



CONDOLEEZZA RICE: [Netanyahu's presentation on Iran's nuclear program] reinforces what we've already known, that the Iranians were secretly developing nuclear weapons at secret sites. It doesn't, perhaps, speak to the 2015 agreement, except in the following way:



You have to worry about verification with the Iranians, and the verification measures in the 2015 agreement were not very strong. They had long periods of notification, long periods of dispute mediation, and so when you know that a country lies about a nuclear weapons, a verification regime that is weak is really problematic.











NORA O'DONNELL: We've had various members of the Trump administration testify to Congress that there is no proof that Iran is violating the 2015 accord. What is the damage if President Trump withdraws from that accord?



RICE: Let me say, I wouldn't have signed this agreement to begin with, I have said that before. Particularly on verification, it was a weak agreement. It allows Iran to break out after a specific period of time. I probably would have stayed in for alliance management reasons more than anything else, but I don't think it is the end of the world if the administration leaves the agreement.
