I haven't had time yet to read the NYT today. .so hadn't seen this yet.
There is absolutely no doubt that the relationship between JK and his Iranian counterpart was absolutely crucial to speedy resolution of this mess.
How lucky we have been to have Sec. Kerry on board at this particular time.

Yet another example of the stellar achievements of the Secretary of State.
IMO JK has already earned his place in the history books for his distinguished service to date; and I am sure that there will be more achievements in the coming year.
