This is a very good move by Trump for a very simple reason. For diplomacy to work, Bolton and Pompeo need to be completely cut off from it. They don't want talks to succeed. Trump presumably does.

But this should not have been made public...

Political cost for any🇮🇷official to talk to Trump (via Paul) is still very high.If they fail,the cost will be even higher.
That's why Tehran needs to maximize the prospects of success.That necessitates that Bolton & Pompeo are cut out since they will sabotage diplomacy
