could to the end of the country's nuclear program. the break through happened afters of a series of secret meeting with s the u.s. and iranian officials over the past couple of months. margaret is in london outside the house of parliament.ary of state ker >> reporter: good morning. secretary of state john kerry flew here to consult with the fo british foreign minister hours after th after they pulled the all night nighter to broker this break through. it only lasts six months.months. it was a rock star welcome home for iran's negotiating team sunday night.m su for this crowd, the nuclear talks were a victory. but the sentiment among lawmakers in the united states was weary. >> they're spiking the football in in the end zone saying look we consolidated gains, relieved sanctions, going to have the right to enrich.

in t >> in the interview with cbs news immediately after the deal in an i was you announced, secretary of state john kerry defended the agreement he helped broker. will not >> we'll have great her tion, greater inspection, greater knowledge, greater restraint. that will expand the amount of ti time it would take for them to break out and create a nuclear weapon. >> iran agreed to destroy the stock pile of weapons grade of nucle uranium, nuclear fuel production and give daily access to select and facilities.c in exchange iran gets $7 billion in financial relief most ex through limited oil sales.s, gold sanctions on auto, gold, chemicals will be lifted.hu was israeli prime minister netanyahu was quick to criticize and said this will allow iran get closer to making bomb. not >> we cannot and will not allow tha a regime that calls for destruction of israel to obtain the means to achieve this goal.

>> president barack obama tried to relay the prime minister's obama concerns.e the two would consult closely to to make sure iran complies. secretary kerry emphasized iran up has six months to back up words comply with action.ust >> are you skeptical iran will comply? >> everyone has a right to be skeptical. there are indications there are people in iran that wanted to pursue a weapons program, that there have been secret why facilities. that's why we don't take anythig at face value. >> reporter: this deal is a a confidence building measure.uilding it buys time to broker a more complete agreement that addresses things like destroyingtroying all of iran's nuclear fuel and and giving access to all facilities. basically the hard part is just beginning. >> margaret, thank you.u. house republican leader eric sponsible cantor the man for bringing additional sanctions in the the e. house calls this a mistake.

he's in richmond virginia. we have a conversation you'll see only on "cbs this morning." good morning. >> charlie, good morning. >> you heard the secretary of state say this is good because it expands the time iran has the have capaci capacity to make a nuclear weapon.e there's more inspection and some enrichment is to 20% will have to be changed.o why isn't that a good deal to why freeze things and delay? charli >> charlie, i think this deal im with iran is in fact dangerous. it is a deal which brings iran closer to becoming a nuclear nego power. this deal negotiated by the secretary of state falls well short of the u.n. security council resolution which called for no sanctions relief until iran suspended its enrichment of uranium.anium. we see in this deal language,

despite protest to the contrary language that says iran will co have some type of right to enrich. as of yet in the language of the deal, still to be defined. this is all contrary to the notion of what so many of us have been fighting for which is on we' to insist we shouldn't pursue a policy of containment with iran that we should in fact insist decei the country that deceived the world, defied u.n. security as def council resolutions can't be trusted. we want that power in that country to dismantle ir verse bli dismantle nuclear stock piles and not be allowed to eversi continue enrichment. i think this deal falls short on all those fronts. i think it bodes a very very ominously in the region and u.s.ongressm security. >> congressman for the first time in a decade we have halted iran's nuclear program..

there's a freeze. also for the first time there will be daily unprecedented inspections of the enrichment facilities. can you say that's positive t that development? >> first of all, since when do we trust iran? dem iran demonstrated again and be again it cannot be trusted. i believe the attitude should berify. mistrust and verify. this agreement just allows iran to continue with all that it has in terms of doesn't allow that dismantling. this used to be something we sta wouldn't stand for. iran could turn around tomorrow omor and throw away this. the problem is what we've i done -- >> sir, but as part of the deal but as iran cannot install or start up new center fuses as you know. it's not the final deal as you're talking about. is a there's a great deal of mistrust

out there. i wonder why there's not acknowledgment that a interim step couldn't lead to a bigger po deal. why isn't that a positive?that >> two things are wrong. two things. let one, we have let the door open to sanction going away. we have said we will ease up on sanctions which have taken years and years of progress for them for to build and be able to apply the kind of pressure at that it did. and what we see also is there's no requirement that we comply with the u.n. security council resolution which the international community united behind which says we need to the keep the pressure on iran until it it suspends the nuclear activity and suspends nuclear enrichment activity. there's no agreement for iran to for dismantle the reactor or ismantle enrichment facilities.

we've got a real cost to us as eal co we are now opening the door to the the weakening of international sanctions in place.ernational >> so your alternative is keep the sanctions on.ace. if they do not lead to a stop p and if iran is close to a nuclear capacity then launch a military attack? >> charlie, i don't buy into this what i believe is a false choice between war or a policy asem of appeasement. i don't. i think we could, with our influence diplomatically, to economically, could continue to build the pressures to protect erests our interest and allies' we have interest. all we have to do is listen to our allies israel gulf era of allies who have been saying all along any kind of deal with this regime in iran is not worth the paper it's written on that it's very dangerous for us to allow iran to now have the ability to e the ab claim it has the right to enrich

which is contrary to all the u.n. security council activities of way. which we know congress has spoken out and citizen it was unacceptable. >> majority leader eric cantor.acceptable thank you for joining us. officials in connecticut will release a report today on the sandy hook school shooting investigation. it may answer questions. elaine is in newtown. good many. >> reporter: good morning charlie, norah and viewers out west. december 14 last year adam lanza killed 20 children and six women at sandy hook elementary school. today the report will summarize far. what's learned so far. t the summary has a clear time line with a focus on police response from that morning. >> r officials including connecticut blume

needed for nuclear arms. >> up to $7 billion in sanction relief. but the prime minister says the deal only increases the threat against his country. >> i know that many share the concern of israel especially in the region and there's a reason for this. for years the international community has demanded that iran cease all uranium enrichment. now for the first time the international community has formally consented that iran continue its enrichments of uranium. >> major garrett is at the white house. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, charlie, norah, and gayle. the white house knows the israeli government led by netanyahu is very concerned about this deal. it all goes tone richment. they want to keep enriching for a nuclear program, in an invisible way. the white house now believes it

has a method it can go in inspect, and see exactly what iran is up to. nevertheless, the israeli concerns remain and that's why before believing the white house yesterday for a west coast fund-raising tour president obama called prime minister netanyahu and said the israeli government would be brought into the next phase of negotiations with iran in order to achieve a final comprehensive deal to eliminate all fears, the white house hopes, of iran obtaining a nuclear weapon. in this phase one deal, what the white house decided to do was side with its european partners russia and china, and not with the israeli government, to try to get the inspectors in to create visibility about what iran is doing with its nuclear program. the president knew they could not agree to this phase one partial deal with iran was they simply don't trust the iranian government. what the white house decided was getting those inspectors in, getting limits on enrichment would be better than no deal at all. even so on capitol hill republicans want to push for harder sanctions faster senate

democrats saying that eel keep that as an option if iran doesn't fly comply with the deal. the president believes that's the best lever to have give iran six mos, see if it will comply, bring the inspectors in and if they don't, not only turn the existing sanctions back on but toughen them with sanctions that could be ratified by the senate and soon afterwards by the house. republicans believe this is a bad deal they're citing with israel. the white house believes it's a durable first start and will wait to see if they'll put a final pact together in the next six months. >> everybody's watching. thank you. president obama is in the west this morning. his trip includes politics and four fund-raisers today. last night he attended two events in seattle for the democratic party. this morning the president heads to san francisco where he will deliver a speech pushing immigration reform. and tonight he will travel to los angeles to raise more money. tomorrow the president visits the dreamworks talk about his economic agenda. miley cyrus has a lot of people talking this morning after her latest performance.
