 The diplomatic breakthrough between Washington and Tehran is a potential gamechanger for Iran’s war-battered economy, former Trump energy secretary Dan Brouillette told CNN in an exclusive interview.

Brouillette expressed concern that the US-Iran agreement is “a little too generous” to Iran, including by giving Iran “certain things up front,” such as the right to immediately sell oil. He noted estimates that the sale of oil and fuel could generate $60 billion a year for Iran.

Trump said on Wednesday that if the war continued, there would have been a 1929-style “economic catastrophe.”
