One that would begin with what he's calling the strongest sanctions in history.>> After our sanctions, come in force, it will be battling to keep it's economy alive.>> Speaking in front of the Conservative Heritage Foundation Think Tank, Pompeo issued 12 demands on Tehran.

They included that Iran stop testing ballistic missiles, release Americans held in Iranian jails and end its support for militant groups across the Middle East.>> Iran must withdraw all forces under Iranian command throughout the entirety of Syria.>> Pompeo said that if Iran changed its behavior, the US would be ready to end sanctions and restore commercial relationships.

That deal puts limits on Iran's ability to reach nuclear material and in exchange, lifted international sanctions.>> We will apply unprecedented financial pressure on Iranian regime.
