Since his first campaign for the White House, President Obama has promised to use the bargaining table instead of the battlefield. The President has just ended a news conference at the White House about the nuclear deal with Iran.
He faced reporters to defend the agreement between Iran, the US and five other world powers, framing the deal as a complex one that achieves the ultimate priority of preventing Iran from developing a bomb and he warned that the alternative was unimaginably worse.
