Obama's Phone call with the president of Iran
After a much anticipated handshake between Hassan Rouhani and Barack Obama did not occur at the United Nations in New York the two shared something else. A fifteen minute phone call between the two happend in replacement of the handshake, and was perhaps more significant than the handshake could have dreamed of being. Many Iranian people were pleased with the phone call however some protested upon Rouhani's return to the country. In my opinion this phone call is good for both countries. There has been a tension between the U.S. and Iran for a long time now and this appears to be a step in the right direction. I am curious to see what this leads to in the coming months.
