I’ll be taking this week off from serious stuff and devoting my time to the Masters golf tournament. But before I disappear, a few words about the Iranian nuclear deal, which is clearly going to dominate the U.S. political agenda over the next few months. Now that we’ve had a few days to examine the Geneva framework, and the interpretations placed upon it by both sides, three things strike me.
If the U.S. interpretation of the deal is accurate, the Iranians have made significant concessions, allowing restrictions to be placed on each of their nuclear installations, including ones whose existence they denied for a long time. It’s for this reason that even some critics of the Obama Administration’s negotiating strategy, such as Gary Samore, of Harvard University’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, have hailed the provisional agreement.
