Henry Kissinger: “The concern I had with the Iranian agreement was that it legitimized the eventual emergence of Iran as a nuclear power.”

I believe it likely that the leadership realizes that it is very difficult, if not impossible, for them to carry out the domestic changes in an atmosphere of Cold War with the United States.

When there is no flexibility and a contest occurs, we have to be aware of the fact that it would have catastrophic consequences for the world.

For us, the problem is hegemony by any one country over Eurasia is a potential threat to our security.
