Setting that table will take a while, and our diplomacy should seek to stabilize the whole region - from Lebanon to Yemen - and not just revisit the Iranian nuclear file. Formally recapping the Iranian nuclear program is important but, for now, it's enough to monitor Iran's nuclear enrichment and make clear the red lines.
