Analysis: After Havana, is Tehran next?

Many of the reasons Obama stated for changing course on Cuba could probably apply to Iran

History was made last week when President Barack Obama announced major changes in American policy towards the neighboring island nation of Cuba, closing what was one of the last chapters of the Cold War.
One man who became part of this history-in-the-making was Alan Gross, an American-Jewish aid worker who was released last week, after serving five years in Cuban prison, as part of the diplomatic deal between Washington and Havana that created the conditions for the American-Cuban détente (Another American held by Cuba was also released in exchange for the American release of three Cuban spies).
Gross, 65, a resident of suburban Washington, was arrested while working as an international aid contractor to improve Internet service and set up an intranet for Cuban Jewish communities. He was charged by the Cuban government with spying and sentenced to a 15-year jail term.http://www.i24news.tv/en/mobile#content/55130
