3-Decade Gridlock Broken: The Nuclear Deal with Iran in Geneva
CNN’s Jim Sciutto and Ben Brumfield report, “The diplomatic gridlock between Iran and the West seemed immovable for decades. But on Sunday, diplomats made history when Iran and six world powers came together on an agreement over Iran’s nuclear program.” They write, “The deal dials back Iran’s ability to work toward a nuclear weapon and at the same time loosens the choke hold of international sanctions on Iran’s economy.” The six-month duration of this preliminary agreement is intended to set the stage for a more comprehensive agreement to “put Iran’s nuclear weapons program to rest.”
