Underscoring that the deal would be implemented on a performance-based framework, with sanctions relief linked to concrete actions by Iran, the US President said, “Again, this is a performance-based thing. If we see the Iranians making, for example, taking action to eliminate their stockpile of enriched material, then sanctions relief will follow. If we see the Iranians taking action to allow the kind of verification regime that we need to see to know that they’re not going to build a nuclear weapon, sanctions relief will follow.”
