WASHINGTON D.C. — In 1987, negotiated by the Reagan administration the Soviet-U.S. Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty was a landmark agreement that banned an entire class of land-based nuclear cruise and ballistic missiles.

Russia decades later, continued to violate the treaty until recent demands by the State Department and the Obama administration to adhere to the treaty terms.  The President's administration demanded Russia agree to inspections and cease any additional nuclear armament.

Now, opponents feel the Iran nuclear deal will face the same failures and, thus arming Iran with the ability to further fuel terrorism and elevating fears of future refusal to comply with the nuclear agreement regardless of any "snap-back" mechanisms put into place regarding economic sanctions and inspections.

Both West Virginia Senators Republican Shelley Moore Capito and Democrat Joe Manchin, representing West Virginia in the United States Senate, have openly voiced their opposition to the proposed agreement.

Newswatch's David Miller spoke with Senator Capito in an exclusive interview with Newswatch and the Senator wants the citizens to know in her words that quote  "This debate is not over yet.  A better deal is possible, and the American people should accept nothing less."
