I hope the Iranians do understand that if an agreement is reached that is verifiable that we will follow through with sanctions relief.

Without our military there actually conducting ground operations, our efforts have been in the diplomatic field.

It seems to me we have been spectacularly unsuccessful in the diplomatic arena in that regard.
