Russian Foreign Minister: Nuclear Deal With Iran ‘Reached On All Key Aspects’



RT: Nuclear deal with Iran ‘reached on all key aspects’ – Lavrov

Iran and six major world powers have managed to reach a preliminary agreement on ‘all the key aspects’ of a deal over Tehran’s controversial nuclear program, Russia’s FM has announced, adding that the sides have begun drafting the text.

Experts from Iran and P5+1 have started drafting a preliminary deal and the document could be expected either within the next few hours or later on Wednesday, Sergey Lavrov hopes. However, clearing the “technical details” of a final deal may take until June, he added.

Not enough US domestic support to cover the Administration's butt and Iran won't budge on some "technical details" that most of the world won't swallow. Why would Iran budge, they've gotten everything they need/want in the nuclear arena.
