Iran - A Tough Row to Hoe
2013-11-25
The left-wing euphoria over the signing of a historic nuclear agreement with Iran gave way to sober reality Sunday as the parties clashed over a key element of the deal and congressional skeptics threatened to thwart it.
I'm having a hard time finding the "clash" in the WaPo article. Except the right vs. left, of course.
In Tehran, officials welcomed the deal as the beginning of a new era for the Islamic republic, with President Rouhani asserting that language in the agreement affirmed Iran's right to enrich uranium, which Iranian officials had demanded as an element of any agreement.
They'll sign up for anything, as long as they can keep doing whatever they want.
"Let anyone make his own reading, but this right is clearly stated in the text of the agreement that Iran can continue its enrichment, and I announce to our people that our enrichment activities will continue as before," Rouhani said in a statement broadcast live on television in Iran on Sunday morning.
In the mean time, most of the rest of the world keeps scheming to make them stop enrichment.
Top men in their field Specialists are working on the framework for the comprehensive nuclear deal to be negotiated with Iran by late spring. The stakes this time will be substantially higher, as Western governments will seek concessions that Iran has fervently opposed, including dismantling several of its key nuclear facilities. Iran, for its part, is expected to demand a suspension of sanctions on its oil and banking industries, relief that would require approval from Congress.
