Iran Withdraws from Nearly All Previous Understandings in Nuclear Talks
(Ha'aretz) Jonathan Lis - An Israeli official said that American officials were caught off guard by Iran's positions at the nuclear talks in Vienna last week. The draft agreements submitted by Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Ali Bagheri Kani include a withdrawal from nearly all the understandings reached in the previous round of talks in June. An American official said the U.S. would not continue its efforts to renew the agreement "forever" and that the U.S. was prepared for the possibility that agreement cannot be reached with Tehran. He added that if Washington reaches the conclusion that Iran killed the agreement, additional sanctions can be expected.
