This is an outstanding must read article published by EurActiv. The author is Ryszard Czarnecki is Vice President of European Parliament and an MEP from the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) Group.

via Nothing has changed in Iran, even after a year of negotiations with Rouhani | EurActiv.

If you read this article carefully, note that it looks at the underlying evidence. It is so different to John Kerry and Barack Obama who are trying to suppress the truth and limit public debate on this critical issue. Meanwhile, Iran is playing war-games sinking US model carriers.

I would encourage all concerned readers to share a copy of the above article with politicians, the media and social media. You might also want to think about the following open question:

What’s Obama’s real agenda on Iran?

Thoughts?

Given the amount of time which has elapsed between the start of negotiations with Iran and the present time, I agree with Dr Alf that the Obama negotiating tactics have failed and that new approaches designed to produce an acceptable deal more quickly are needed.

Donald Trump has lambasted Obama’s negotiating tactics with China and overall, so the Netanyahu government in Israel and the US Congress are right to take a new tack over the Iranian nuclear discussions because the evidence is that what has been tried up to now is failing.

Iran is suffering under the present sanctions, is economically weak, and should therefore be easy to pressure.

Obama and his hench-persons seem unable to grasp that fact and unable to press their advantage.
