This is a big win, both for Wash­
ington and the international commu­
nity as a whole, for many reasons.
First and foremost, a diplomatic
solution to this decade-long chal­
lenge would prevent the two most
likely alternatives: an Iranian
I nuclear weapon or a war.
Without ongoing diplomatic ne­
gotiations, sanctions have no im ­
pact. They are designed to bring
adversaries to the negotiating table.
Should this deal fail, additional
sanctions would be imposed but are
unlikely to have an effect. While
Iran’s economy will continue to
suffer under the toughest sanctions
regime ever enacted, hardliners in

Iran will be empowered to seek the
only option left: a nuclear threat.
Were Iran to accelerate its offensive
nuclear program, without a doubt, it
would lead to a military strike that
could trigger another protracted war
in the Middle East.
This current deal, however, of­
fers serious hope. It rolls back the
most dangerous aspects of Iran’s
nuclear program, addresses Iran’s
current nuclear stockpile, and en­
sures Iran’s nuclear advancement
is halted. It also opens Iran’s nuclear
facilities to daily inspections and
places verifiable limits on Iran’s
nuclear program, thus limiting Iran’s
capacity to develop a bomb.
This inspection regim e tests
Iran’s assertions that its program is
for only peaceful purposes.
This agreement isn’t built on
trust; it is built on verification.
Importantly, this is not just a
bilateral deal between our nation
and Iran. The deal includes China
and Russia, whose participation will
help to ensure Iran’s compliance.
This solution is recognized interna­
tionally as a means to bring greater
stability to the Middle East while
increasing U.S. and Israeli security.
By limiting Tehran ’ s nuclear pro­
gram and continually inspecting its
nuclear sites, we can be assured
that Iran is not developing a nuclear
weapon.
Critics have argued that this is a
bad deal because it doesn’t force
Iran to immediately and completely
dismantle its nuclear program.
At the end of six months, how­
ever, Iran ’ s nuclear program will be
set back further than it was at the
deal’s outset.
Demands for immediate and com­
plete capitulation would derail talks
and leave Washington with two bad
options: war or a quickly advancing
nuclear program.
Despite the overwhelming logic
to the contrary, members o f Con­
gress are introducing legislation to
call for a new slate of counterpro­
ductive sanctions. Pro-diplomacy
groups are rallying to prevent this

support diplomacy.
For the first time in decades, the
world has placed verifiable limita­
tions on Iran’s nuclear program.
Should a long-term deal not materi­
alize, the U.S. government will be
back at the starting line, but Iran will
be further away from a bomb. We
have six months to reach a long­
term deal that prevents wars and
enhances U.S., Israeli, and interna­
tional security. Congress shouldn’t
obstruct this path.
