Model UN Discussion Oct. 29:

This week’s discussion will revolve around the article found in this link: E:\time.jpg (type as a website address)

Issue: a. How should the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) respond to Iran’s illegal stash of LEU (low-enriched uranium) if the Iranian superiors don’t sign off on the compromise made in the Vienna negotiations between Iran, the USA, and Russia? b. What will national sanctions, which may be implemented by Obama if Iran does not follow up on the agreements made in the Vienna negotiations, mean for Iran?
