President Barack Obama announced a framework to scale back Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for reduced international sanctions in a speech from the Rose Garden on Thursday, calling it a "historic" agreement based on "unprecedented verification."

"This framework would cut off every pathway that Iran could take to develop a nuclear weapon,” Obama said. "Iran will face strict limitations on its program, and Iran has also agreed to the most robust and intrusive inspections and transparency regime ever negotiated for any nuclear program in history.”

The agreement follows two years of negotiations between Iran, the United States and the European Union and comes after a two-day extension of a self-imposed March 31 framework deadline. Diplomats must iron out specifics of the 15-year framework ahead of a June 30 deadline.
