Description:

"With courage, political will, mutual respect and leadership, we delivered on what the world was hoping for: a shared commitment to peace and to join hands in order to make our world safer. This is an historic day also because we are creating the conditions for building trust and opening a new chapter in our relationship."No one ever thought it would be easy. Historic decisions never are. But despite all twists and turns of the talks, and the number of extensions, hope and determination enabled us to overcome all the difficult moments. We have always been aware we had a responsibility to our generation and the future ones."—Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and E.U. foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini, in a statement on July 14, 2015Click here for the full text of the nuclear deal.Click here for analysis and reaction to the JCPOA.  Christians (mainly Assyrian and Armenian churches) - 300,000-370,000 Zoroastrians - 25,000 to 60,000Bordering bodies of water: Caspian Sea - 462 miles Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman - 1,525 milesSources: CIA World Factbook (2016, 2019), U.S. State Department International Religious Freedom Report 2013 “The Iran Primer: Power, Politics and U.S. Policy” is an unprecedented project by 50 of the world’s top scholars on Iran representing some 20 foreign policy think tanks, eight universities, and senior foreign policy officials from six U.S. administrations.
