Iran will likely use the Obama administration’s final weeks to try to procure nuclear-related materials in violation of last summer’s landmark nuclear deal, a top lawmaker told the THE WEEKLY STANDARD.

While Iran is prohibited from purchasing civil nuclear and so-called dual-use goods outside of the procurement channel set up under the deal, recent reports indicate that the country has yet to fully use the channel and has instead tried to obtain goods using unofficial means. The State Department effectively denied those reports in a statement to TWS this week.
