I think the reason for this administration carrying out all meetings in 'secret' is to make deals for collecting large 'donations'
There is a lot of good information, reasonably well presented. The story skirts the issues of which Iranian behaviors the FATF is concerned about versus those the US is concerned about as they are likely different. The fact that they are different is not mentioned. The US talking points are featured to the relative exclusion of alternate views. An OK story if a bit shallow. Contrast it to the Int'l Herald Trib. article which provides so much more perspective. That story is at least a 1/2 point better story if not more.
