Diplomacy is reducing Iranian nuclear weapon: Obama

January 29, 2014 08:41

"It is American diplomacy, backed by pressure, that has halted the progress of Iran's nuclear program -- and rolled parts of that program back - for the very first time in a decade. With our allies and partners, we're engaged in negotiations to see if we can peacefully achieve a goal we all share: preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon," Obama said.

"Diplomacy is reducing Iranian nuclear weapon. We must give diplomacy a chance to succeed. I will veto an Iran sanction bill."
