Iran’s Sunni Neighbors Seem Unconcerned About Nuclear Program
by Jim LobeFor all the talk about Iranian imperialism and the Sunni-Shia divide throughout the Middle East, the predominantly Sunni Muslim publics of at least some of Iran’s neighbors don’t seem too concerned about Tehran’s nuclear program.
That is the inescapable conclusion of the most recently released component of the Pew Research Center’s giant Global Attitudes Project poll, which asked their 45,000-plus respondents in 40 different countries to choose which, among seven regional and global challenges, they were “very concerned” about. The challenges included global climate change, global economic stability, the Islamic State (ISIS or IS), Iran’s nuclear program, cyber attacks, tensions with Russia, and territorial disputes with China. The survey was carried out this spring.http://www.lobelog.com/irans-sunni-neighbors-seem-unconcerned-about-nuclear-program/#more-30109
