Naghmeh Abedini, wife of Saeed Abedini, an American pastor imprisoned in
Iran, speaks at the Conservative Political Action Conference, National Harbor, Maryland, Feb.

National
Harbor, Md. — Religious freedom is not being addressed in the Obama
administration's negotiations with Iran over its nuclear capability, complained
Naghmeh Abedini, an Iranian-American whose husband, Saeed Abedini, is imprisoned
in Iran because of his Christian faith.
"What
kind of message are we sending to the world when we continue to negotiate while
Iran continues to abuse one of our own, an American pastor?" she asked. "What is
our message to the world on religious freedom issues?" CP.
