Obama Should Test Iran's Nuclear Offer
Graham Allison, Harvard University | October 10, 2011
Three times during September’s UN General Assembly, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made an offer to stop weapons-grade uranium enrichment in exchange for access to specialized fuel for its research reactor. ++ President Obama should move quickly to take Iran up on their offer. ++ Though this will not solve the problem of a nuclear Iran, President Obama should ask himself the same question about Iran’s enriched uranium as Reagan did about the Berlin Wall: are we better off with it or without it?
