The United States sanctions against Iran are still mostly in place.  Almost all of the sanctions that were released were from other governments.  Those governments agreed to those sanctions just in order to get Iran to negotiate.  They would never have remained in place indefinitely like many here in the US seem to believe.

And they worked.  We did not get a "lifetime ban" on Iran's nuclear weapons program, but we got a ten year deal.  That is better than the alternative.  The only problem is that we will have to start working on another deal in8 years or so.
