Iran wants Nuclear debates concluded

Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif  of Iran has indicated that the time is "now" to come to an agreement with the U.S. and the U.N. Security Council of its nuclear debate. The U.S. and security council hope to reach a long-term deal that limits Iran's enrichment of uranium and escalation of other materials that could lead to a nuclear weapon. Iran has become more willing to come to an agreement as of lately. Zarif met in Munich with each country individually in negotiating some sort of conclusion. Both sides of the ordeal are hoping to agree on main points by the end of March, with a comprehensive deal done by late June. The U.S. called the meeting with Zarif "constructive" and Zarif has indicated that he sees no need to drag this situation out. Iran has indicated that the uranium is just for medical research and energy production. It has agreed to some restrictions in exchange for billions of dollars in relief from U.S. sanctions. Zarif also indicated that he wants all restrictions lifted and that the restrictions really have done nothing in stopping Iran further their nuclear agenda.

I hope an agreement can be met, but I still think we can't turn our backs on Israel who is one of our longest allies. Israel has been adamant about the fact of not allowing Iran to grab control over nuclear weapons. I believe that should be the strategy. I think trust is hard thing to associate with Iran. Limiting their nuclear agenda is a must.
