U.S. Says Tehran Is Stalling on Nuclear Deal
(NPR) Steve Inskeep - U.S. special envoy for Iran Robert Malley said in an interview Tuesday that at a recent meeting with the Iranians in Doha, Qatar, "they seem, at this point, not capable of providing an answer. And so it was more than a little bit of a wasted occasion....The party that has not said 'yes' is Iran....The party that needs to provide an answer now is Iran." The Iranians "have, and including in Doha, added demands that I think for anyone looking at this would be viewed as having nothing to do with the nuclear deal....They need to come to a conclusion about whether they are now prepared to come back into compliance with the deal." Malley said the Iranians have enough highly enriched uranium on hand to make a bomb. "It would take them a matter of weeks. Again, it would be something that we would know, we would see, and to which we would react quite forcefully."
