I don’t get it why can’t the UN Security Council have permanent inspectors in Iran at the fasciitis and aid Iran in to get the 20% uranium enrichment. Putting sanctions on Iran makes things only worse while it’s clear that Iran is working on getting more confidence and unity among themselves and wants a modern future and place in the Global market. Iran has great potentials if it learns to communicate with the western world and the western world don’t place prejudgment. Sir Sergey Lavrov is a awesome guy Good work!
