New Report on the Effectiveness of Iran Sanctions
Posted: March 31, 2013 Filed under: Nuclear 3 CommentsThis new report from the National Iranian American Council on the impact of Western sanctions on Iran’s nuclear calculations looks excellent and very insightful. I recommend it highly.
This was picked up by CSMonitor — one of the better papers:

Report: Sanctions may be speeding Iran’s nuclear advancement
“Interviews with Iranian officials and others reveal that tough sanctions are hurting Iran’s economy – but may also be encouraging defiance by a regime more worried about any appearance of capitulation.”
