Iranian Officials Accept Draft Deal on Uranium Transfer
[Washington Post] Glenn Kessler - Iranian negotiators on Wednesday accepted a draft agreement that would transfer the bulk of Iran's enriched uranium stockpile out of the country. U.S. officials and other diplomats stressed that the deal would be only the first step in a difficult process to persuade Iran to suspend its uranium-enrichment activities and that suspension remains the primary goal. Nonetheless, they said Iran's willingness to accept the agreement would be viewed as an early test of its intentions.
