## Resource

The US has lifted its Iran naval blockade following the US-Iran deal. Both countries have signed a deal but what does it actually mean for the two nations? We head to Cuba where the government’s unveiled sweeping reforms, trying to steady an economy that’s really under pressure. And the Governor of Massachusetts has unofficially "legalised" the Scottish dish haggis, as the state continues to welcome Scotland fans during the World Cup. Presenter: Vishala Sri-Pathma Producer: Barbara George and Parisa Qurban
