According to an NBC News poll released on Thursday, most Americans don’t trust that Iran will abide by an eventual agreement to curtail its nuclear program and not develop an atomic weapon.
More than half the respondents in the poll said that Iran’s nuclear program represents a major threat to the United States.
The poll found that 68 percent of respondents believed that Iran was either not too likely or not at all likely to abide by a nuclear agreement, compared with 25 percent who said Iran was very likely or somewhat likely.
The poll, conducted by NBC News, was conducted Monday through Wednesday, just days after diplomats working around the clock agreed on a framework for an eventual deal.
Six world powers negotiated with Iran on the framework. The details must still be worked out before a June 30 deadline.
