One of the individuals Jake Sullivan negotiated with during the secret talks was Abbas Araghchi, who is now Iran's foreign minister.

Jake Sullivan was part of the team President Obama sent for secret negotiations with the Iranians for several months, paving the way for the Iran nuclear deal.

Jake Sullivan states that just a few days before the U.S. started bombing Iran, the Iranians put a proposal on the table in Geneva that went a long way towards resolving the nuclear issue.

Jake Sullivan clarifies that Iran was not only stating what they had but also expressing preparedness to downblend the uranium, rendering it unfit for weapons.

Jake Sullivan received a cell phone number from an Iranian official to connect President Obama with President Rouhani.

Jake Sullivan's approach to dealing with Iranians was "Don't trust, and verify."
