JERUSALEM – The interim agreement reached in Geneva between the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council plus Germany (the P5+1) and Iran is probably the best deal to curtail Iran’s nuclear program that could be reached, given current circumstances. The United States and its Western allies were unwilling to risk a military option, and not concluding a deal would have allowed Iran to proceed unimpeded toward acquiring nuclear weapons.
耶路撒冷——鉴于当前形势，联合国安理会五大常任理事国加上德国（P5+1）与伊朗达成的日内瓦临时协议或许是遏制伊朗核计划可能的最好结果。美国及其西方盟国都不愿冒险动用武力，而不达成协议相当于默许伊朗随心所欲地获取核武器。
