AJE's Inside Story: Iran's Rial, Bad Policy or Western Sanctions?

Joshua Goodman, TAI's Communications Director, joined Al Jazeera English's "Inside Story" to discuss Iran's fledgeling economy and the sanctions placed on the country as a result of it's nuclear programme.

Asked whether the West was responsible for Iran's economic suffering, Mr. Goodman noted, "The question is not 'does the responsibility lie on the US or the EU'…it lies on the Iranian government to adhere to its international obligations concerning its nuclear programme. That's the single reason why there are sanctions against Iran."
