We got them and we’re putting the clamps on.

There has been some progress.

Mr. President, you have other options available to you if that doesn't work.

We cannot and will not allow any cases of Ebola to enter the United States.

We don’t need oil. We don’t need the strait. We don’t need anything.

Both sides are working toward a “memorandum of understanding” that sets a roadmap for resolving all outstanding issues — Rubio called it a “work in progress.” 

Key sticking points: reopening the Strait of Hormuz, Iran’s nuclear program, and $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets — with major disagreements over the timing of sanctions relief. 

The US proposed a 20-year nuclear pause; Iran countered with 5 years — which Washington rejected. Iran is also resisting US demands to ship its enriched uranium abroad. 

Pakistan and Qatar have emerged as the key mediators, relaying proposals and counterproposals between the two sides. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Having a failed state 90 miles from our shores is a threat to the national security of the United States.

We are not talking about any easing of sanctions or giving money.

We have control of money that they claim is theirs. We will keep control of that money.

When they behave properly and do what’s right, we will let them have their money.
