President Trump had a stern warning for Iran on Tuesday.
AP correspondent Sagar Meghani reports.
The president issued the warning as he met here at the White House with French counterpart Emmanuel Macron, who is lobbying him to stay in the multinational deal aimed at restricting Iran's nuclear weapons development.
"(If) they restart their nuclear program they will have bigger problems than they ever had before."
He calls the Iran deal insane and ridiculous.
The presidents also talking about North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, whom who he says wants to meet as soon as possible.
"He really has been very open and, I think, very honorable from everything we're seeing."

The U.N. Human Rights Office wants an investigation into the killings of dozens of civilians by Saudi-led coalition airstrikes in Yemen during the past four days.
Correspondent Lisa Schlein reports for VOA.
Human Rights spokeswoman Liz Throssell says two coalition airstrikes destroyed a wedding tent, killing at least 19 civilians and injuring some 50 others. She says the final toll of deaths and injuries may be higher.
"Local inhabitants informed our staff that the victims do not have any political affiliations, not to say that that would have made the wedding party a legitimate target. They also said there were no military objectives in the vicinity of the targeted area at the time of the attack."

Bloggers and others running online platforms in Tanzania have two weeks to register with the government or face fines and jail time.
Correspondent Mohammed Yusuf reports from VOA's East Africa bureau in Nairobi.
Those who fail to comply (with) the new regulations could face fines and up to a year in jail.
Reporters without Borders has called the new law "the latest blow to free speech in Tanzania."
Newspapers seen as critical have been shut down or their licenses suspended. In February, two opposition politicians were jailed for allegedly insulting the president.
In Tanzania, bloggers and administrators of other online platforms have until May 5th to get registered. Their licenses will then come up for renewal, for a fee, every three years.
