five-year low, inflation is on the rise, the currency is sinking and nuclear
talks are dragging on with no end to sanctions in sight. Those are the grim
indicators confronting Iranians as winter approaches.”

correspondent Peter Kenyon, that will be aired at 12:00 p.m. ET on Weekend Edition Sunday, Sunday 7
December. Kenyon was part of NPR’s team recognized with two Alfred DuPont-Columbia
University awards for outstanding coverage of post-war Iraq.
