by | Apr 1, 2015

With the P5+1 talks extending beyond the March 31st deadline, it appears the main impediment to a deal is the refusal to lift sanctions on Iran even if Iran begins implementing its part of the agreement. Some on the other side are holding out for a delay of up to several years before Iran sees substantial sanctions relief. What are the origins of the sanctions on Iran?

Ron Paul takes a look at the very important Iran discussions and gives his take on what to expect. Tune in to his latest Liberty Report:
