Officials close to the nuclear talks in Lausanne between the six power and Iran confirm that this round has come to a dead end, having failed to reach agreement on fundamental questions by the March 31 deadline.. DEBKAfile has reported consistently that supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s radical clergy and Revolutionary Guards had set their faces firmly against this deal, preferring to leave a diplomatic void for Tehran to continue to develop a nuclear weapon, without US interference. Sources in Lausanne report that the diplomats gathered there are working on a joint partial communiqué to mask the fiasco and justify the continuation of negotiations up until the next deadline in late June
Iran Backing Away From Key Detail in Nuclear Deal, Oil Lower
http://www.thestreet.com/video/13094551/iran-backing-away-from-key-detail-in-nuclear-deal-oil-lower.html
Iran is reportedly backing away from a key detail in the nuclear deal. The deadline is Tuesday at midnight and the New York Times reports that Iran is no longer willing to ship their atomic fuel out of the country after months of tentatively saying it would do so.
Just a hunch but there is a good chance that the French were instrumental in blocking the sweet deal Obama and Kerry were about to sign with Iran. The French represent Saudi interests at these talks. The Saudis purchase the bulk of French grain exports to feed Egypt and themselves. The Saudis have invested heavily into prime French real estate and companies . They own a big percentage of the French national debt.
Dead-end? Not likely.
Dear Leader needs this “treaty’ for his immortal Legacy.
Secretary of State John F. Kerry (Vietnam hero) needs it in order to get his Nobel Peace Prize, which he believes will propel him to the Democrat nomination for President. Subsequently, his election to the Presidency.
Seems completely plausible.
All Iran wants is MONEY which means lifting all the sanctions around the world.
Such dreams....which explain the long face.
With the “Sighing Ceremony” now dead, Obama will announce a handshake ceremony over the secret, unwritten deals he has cut with the Iranian mullahs. This “Shaking Ceremony” will likely be held in the men’s room.
Deal or no deal it really makes no difference. Iran will continue to develop its nuke no matter what happens with this agreement. The agreement is solely to glorify the Great Leader and give Iran legitimacy in having nukes. I think this “impass” is being orchestrated to take the heat off of Obama as the world was beginning to see it as a sell out to Iran
This summit...bears all the marks of a SHOW TRIAL...and has since the beginning!
SInce when has anything that obama has been involved with been honest and above board?
same old..same old
I don’t think Iran is really all that interested in a deal. Barky is the one who sent them a letter probably begging them to come to the table.
What does Iran have to fear for the next two years? Not the US for sure. Probably not even Israel. Bibi will wait til the last minute before he acts alone and who can blame him.
This whole thing is just another way for Iran to stall around and keep enriching uranium while getting sanctions lifted. Iran is chanting Death to America and blowing up mock US aircraft carriers while at the negotiating table. How serious could they be?
