USA: Obama Has the Votes to Pass Iran Deal
- 9 years ago
President Barack Obama has secured enough votes in Congress to ensure passage of his Iran deal. Senator Barbara Mikulski announced in the morning she would back the agreement, giving Obama the 34th and final vote needed to prevent Republicans from vetoing it. In a Wednesday press conference, Secretary of State John Kerry spoke of the benefits of the deal reached by the P5+1 group. Many experts feel that although there are enough votes in Congress to pass the deal, the Republicans will try their best to undermine it. Bianca Perez reports from Washington for teleSUR.
