Media Advisory: UANI’s 2017 Iran Summit Set to Kick Off As U.N. General Assembly Opens
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#iran–United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) will host a distinguished lineup of
current and former foreign leaders, lawmakers, and Iran experts at its
second annual Iran Summit, a public event to be held on Tuesday,
September 19 at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York.
The day-long event of interviews and discussions will examine the
political and economic environment since the signing of the 2015 nuclear
deal with Iran — with particular focus on Iran’s role in the region,
its relationship with North Korea, and the future of Iran policy in the
Trump administration.
Comprised of former diplomats and lawmakers, UANI is spearheading a
global education campaign focused on the risks of doing business with
Iran, warning hundreds of international companies that may be
contemplating Tehran as a new investment opportunity.
