A historic agreement on Iran's nuclear programme was made possible by months of unprecedented secret meetings between US and Iranian officials.
The Obama administration asked journalists not to publish details they had uncovered of the secret diplomacy until the Geneva talks were over for fear of derailing them. The Associated Press and a Washington-based news website, Al-Monitor, finally did so on Sunday.
The Associated Press said preliminary and secret talks were held in Oman and other locations. The US envoys for the meetings were the deputy secretary of state, William Burns, and Jake Sullivan, a foreign policy adviser to Joe Biden. Al-Monitor reported that a senior national security council official, Puneet Talwar, also took part. AP said there had been five meetings dating back to March, implying the first contacts came three months before the election of the reformist Hassan Rouhani as president. It is not clear which Iranian officials were involved in the talks.

Biden is an Iran sympathizer from way back.
In other words, we got screwed!
The most transparently secret US government ever.
And....AND....did the lizard lady cut this deal? Bluntly asking, did VJ orchestrate this lopsided deal against Israel and America??? What role did she play?
Yep, Brotherhood to Brotherhood or muslim to muslim, or jihadist to jihadist backroom deals. The only thing unprecedented is what has been allowed to occupy the US White House.
Republican leaders just aren’t enough like Ronald Reagan for you? Sit home and be smugly happy in 2014, 2016, etc. Get used to hearing the media and Dims say, first, “you can’t criticize her, she’s the first female President,” then beginning 2024, “you can’t criticize him, he’s the first Hispanic President,” then in 2032 “you can’t criticize her, she’s the first female Hispanic President.”
Then, come 2039, maybe you’ll be able to have the next Ronald Reagan. In the meantime, “thanks for your help advancing the Conservative cause.”
Unrest at home, a destabilizing economy, failure of Hezbollah to influence events in Syria, etc.
The President just gave the regime a free lifeline.
This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of in the history of diplomacy.
On the nose.
Jar Jar Valjarret Binks did this deal. Who in the USA cares a whit about mullahs in Iran?
Now Israel will glass the place.
