Saudi Arabia and president Obama's nuclear agreement with Iran in Juy 2015

07/17/2015

Karen Elliott House, a widely respected expert on Saudi Arabia, provides an exceptional assessment of the Saudi situation and the Middle East as the Obama administration reaches a final agreement on a nuclear deal with Iran in July 2015, which involves unfreezing of about $100 billion in assets by the end of 2015, and the removal of economic sanctions. It also includes a lifting of the arms embargo on Iran. She points out that the Saudis have few options in the short term, and how this could change the situation in the Middle East if Iran uses funds to support proxies in the Middle East.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
