In April 2015, the P5+1, the
5 permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany, negotiated
an interim nuclear accord with Iran. Among the key parameters: Iran’s
enrichment capacity, enrichment levels, and stockpile would be limited;
its Fordow site converted into a research center; and the Arak heavy
water reactor redesigned. In return, the IAEA would gain greater access
for inspections, and U.S. and EU sanctions would be lifted. Many in the
U.S. fear that a deal as outlined would not go far enough and, instead
of being a benefit, would strengthen Iran’s hand in the Middle East. Not
to mention the important question of trust. Is this agreement a
“once-in-a-lifetime opportunity” to halt nuclear proliferation, or does
President Obama have this wrong?Source.
