President Barack Obama and Gover- nor Mitt Romney faced off for the final debate, 15 days before the Nov. 6 vote, on Monday night at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Fla.

During the 90-minute session, Obama and Romney focused on foreign policy and more specifically, American involvement in the Middle East.

CBS News Chief Washington Corre- spondent Bob Schieffer, who moderat- ed the debate, asked questions centered on international diplomacy from the get-go. When asked about the current situation involving the development of a nuclear program in Iran, Obama responded by stating, “Our goal is to get Iran to recognize it needs to give up its nuclear program and abide by the U.N. resolotions that have been in place, because they have the opportunity to re-enter the communi- ty of nations, and we would welcome that.”

Romney responded with a summa- ry of reasons why he thinks Iran sees weakness in the Obama administra- tion that can be exploited. Referring to Iranians as “our enemies,” Romney suggested Obama’s actions allowed Iran to pursue nuclear program and not follow U.N. policy.

Additional questions covered the rise of China, America’s role in the world and terrorism.

In his closing statement, Romney gave an overview of his platform.

“I want to see growing peace in this country; it’s our objective.” Romney said. “ We have an opportunity to have real leadership.”

Obama closed his platform by de- scribing his vision for America.

“I want to build on our strengths… I will fight for your families and I work every single day to make sure that America continues to be the greatest nation on Earth.”
