U.S. President Barak Obama has two major priorities in his Iran policy: he wants to avert an Iranian bomb and avert bombing Iran, and the best way to check both those boxes is a continuation of diplomacy, said Carnegie’s Karim Sadjadpour on the Charlie Rose Show. The real challenge here is finding a document which both the U.S. Congress and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard can agree upon, Sadjapour said, describing such a document as a Venn diagram in which Iranian ideology, American domestic politics, and Israel national security all intersect. “Even if the gaps in diplomacy appear quite large,” he contended, “there’s no great alternative to a continuation of these negotiations.”
