Arlen Specter: US Should Negotiate with Iran

Writing in the current issue of the Washington Quarterly, Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA) states:

“Facing serious dangers from nuclear weapons from Iran and North Korea, the United States should be willing to negotiate bilaterally with those two nations. Success in diffusing these threats will require multilateral assistance from other world powers, but our willingness to treat Iran and North Korea with dignity and respect could go a long way in disarming those nations militarily and diplomatically.”
