The Perils of an Iran Nuclear Deal

(New York Post) Amir Taheri - This week, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov offered a preview of Moscow's plan for "solving" the Iranian nuclear stand-off. According to Fars, a news agency owned by Iran's Revolutionary Guard, Lavrov mentioned the possibility of Iran "voluntarily" suspending uranium enrichment above the 20% level in exchange for full recognition of its right to enrich uranium. If America buys into it, the five Security Council resolutions imposing sanctions on Iran would be set aside. The fact that Iran has been violating the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty for more than 20 years will be forgotten. Iran will get to keep almost all of the 4,000 kg. of uranium it has illegally enriched. At next week's UN General Assembly, Rouhani will be all smiles and will do his utmost to appear moderate and reasonable.
