Iran Nuclear Deal: Breakthrough or Failure?

On Tuesday, March 11th, 2014, The McCain Institute for International Leadership at Arizona State University hosted the debate: "Iran Nuclear Deal: Breakthrough or Failure?" at the Jack Morton Auditorium on the George Washington University campus, in Washington, DC. The debate centered on the interim nuclear deal with Iran. Supporters hail the interim agreement as a diplomatic breakthrough that effectively delays Iran's progress toward a nuclear weapons program, and gives negotiators more time to reach a final agreement. Critics, however, argue that the Iranian regime has bought time to further develop their nuclear program while giving up little of consequence.
