According to today's Washington Post President Obama has stated that Iran has the right to nuclear energy as long as it is used for peaceful purposes. He plans to pursue direct diplomatic talks with Iran to discourage it from developing nuclear weapons.
The article states:
"The president has indicated a willingness to seek deeper international sanctions against Tehran if it does not respond positively to U.S. attempts to open negotiations on its nuclear program. Obama has said Tehran has until the end of the year to show it wants to engage with Washington."
The question that remains unanswered is whether or not Iran will have nuclear weapons by the end of the year.
