"The deal struck Monday by Iran with Brazil and Turkey will do nothing to restrain Tehran's nuclear program. It could, however, derail the Obama administration's effort to focus international pressure on Iran and buy the regime more time to enrich uranium and defeat its domestic opposition." In short the deal is a possible diplomatic coup for Iran. Tehran must be made to abandon its higher-level enrichment activities and if it does not agree to do so, sanctions in the UN security council should proceed immediately.
