Will continue construction of the water reactor despite the deal which says there should be no further activities. what can you tell us about that? >> first, lets be clear about a couple things. this deal is important because for the first time in a decade, it halts the progress of irans nuclear program, it rolls it back in some key respects, and it gives us the monitoring and inspections weve never had before. with regard to the iraq facility, the deal says that -- and the iranians have pledged...
