Iran and six other powers among the world including the United States have agreed upon a limit on Iran's nuclear program. The agreement has decreased Iran's stockpile of higher levels of uranium and also taking apart some of the structure of the program. With Iran limiting their stockpiles in their nuclear program, the US and others will be giving Iran billions of dollars to help recover the economy in Iran. The agreement needed further consultation with the International Atomic Energy Agency. With the agreement, the uranium production in Iran will be decreased enough to make energy, but not able to make bombs. Both President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry have issued statements on the agreement. President Obama sees the agreement as a step forward. Secretary of State Kerry is troubled with the thought of the future of needing more agreements in the future that could be more difficult to agree upon. This specific agreement begins January 20th.
