later they said it's going to be maximum i.r.2 and eventually they said it must not go beyond i.r.8. and what islamic republic of iran, was seeking was i.r.6 and i.r.8 and we won a deal, so the deal, limitation of the deal the -- it would be injected into i.r.8 and today we have attained such a deal today. regarding our reactor can remain in iraq, but heavy water has no meaning there. it is meaningless. but we have reached a deal today and based on this deal reference has been explicitly made to heavy water and that iraq reactor will be completed with heavy water based on the deal. they said it's really been difficult to hear the name of fordo, do not name it and we will -- we won't hear it. then they said that -- they said that there should be no centrifuges in fordo, and also it's going to be a resent sent for sustainable isotopes. after several months of bargaining they said that one cascade should remain in fordo. 154. let me tell you that there will be centrifuges in fordo, and part of that will be allocated to r&d concerning sustainable isotopes. regarding the annulment or lift

iran will be allowed to operate one i.r. 4 machine, one i.r. 5 machine and one i.r. 5 machine. it contests these machines but can't acouple plate enrichede uranium. and after about 8 and-a-half years, iran will be able to test 30 implet r. 6 machines and 30 i.r. machines and they can begin producing 200 of each of these models per year but will not producing the rotors. so around the year when iran transitions, its capacity will remain a relatively stable for the next three years. so through the capacity is the measure of capacity. that means that the capacity of iran's 0,060 i.r. 5 centrifuges will remain. so if a machine has 10 times the capacity of an i.r. one machine if it produces an i.r. 6 machine, they have to remove the machines. we won't see a rampup immediately after the 10-year restrictions on using i.r. 1's. it's important to note that we should not voo any of these elements in isolation. in addition to these restrictions on the number of machines that are being produced. iran's materials that can be used will be monitored by the joint commission, which is set up th

later they said it's going to be maximum i.r.-2 and eventually they said it must not go beyond i.r.-8. and what islamic republic of iran was seeking was i.r.-6 and i.r.-8 and we won a deal, so the deal, limitation of the deal the -- it would be injected into i.r.-8 and today we have attained such a deal today. regarding our reactor can remain in iraq, but heavy water has no meaning there. is meaningless. but we have reached a deal today and based on this deal, reference has been explicitly made to heavy water and that iraq reactor will be completed with heavy water based on the deal. regarding fordo they said it's really been difficult to hear the name of fordo, do not name it and we will -- we won't hear it. then they said that -- they said that there should be no centrifuges in fordo, and also it's going to be a resent sent for sustainable isotopes. after several months of bargaining they said that one cascade should remain in fordo. 154. let me tell you that there will be certainty fugse in fordo, and part of that will be allocated to r&d concerning sustainable isotopes. regarding

in the i.r.6s and i.r.8s, they aren't allowed to enrich uranium in the first ten years preventing them to make quick transition to centrifuges in the last ten years. and the last ten years they do more r&d while we have the inspection unit watching to make sure it's peaceful. that's important so they couldn't be advancing r&d capability in the ten-year period when we essentially wanted to roll back the program. >> rose: as you know, there are many people who are opposed and i suppose the administration is too, to a lot of iran's activities with terrorist groups and others in its region. some hoped that you could tie this down and that conduct to this agreement. why couldn't you? >> well, this agreement was always about the nuclear program, and we're making the judgment that iran with a nuclear weapon will be far more dangerous in all those activities than they are today. a nuclear emblah for hezbollah would be the worst outcome. so it's worth it to set aside issues in this negotiation to make sure they're prevented from getting a nuclear weapon. we'll still have the concerns. even on t

we are continuing our investigation of the i.r. s and its unlawful targeting of conservatives. mr. speaker, this is the people's house. and we, republicans in the majority, will continue to do the work of the american people by passing appropriate legislation and holding this tration accountable for what it should be doing and what it has done that is inappropriate. the republican-led house, mr. speaker, in the past seven months has delivered real results that would solve many of the challenges that face our nation, but there's still more to do to make the outdated models in washington, d.c., more effective, efficient and accountable. and as we go home to our districts for the august recess not a dictation, but an opportunity for us to be in our districts, to be with our constituents to hear from our constituents what their concernsr we will be gathering more ideas nor legislation and come back torm congress in september with the renewed commitment to do the people's business and the people's house. with that, mr. speaker, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yield

i our community, -- i.r.riving logic of conflict in the 21st century between the u.s. and china is a short of structuralist argument that the u.s. is the only regional hegemony in the world. we have been that way in the western hemisphere. and that as china grows, it can reach that same level of regional hegemony, but in the pacific. of course, there was an incident of power that quite nearly did that, imperial japan around 1938 until 1945. but it seems to me that if you look at sort of the security situation in the asia-pacific today, china is just not anywhere near in that same position. you have 30,000 u.s. troops and you are ok. 50,000 in japan. in the philippines, lots of u.s. , you know, military cooperation and exchange of exercises and tech. in southeast asia, you have china facing territorial disputes with india, russia, and other states that it neighbors. so it seems to me, you know, that that fear of china becoming a regional power at a level of parity with the u.s., where they will be so dominant
