GENEVA – Iran's nuclear envoy in
Geneva says an initial agreement has been reached on implementing a
nuclear deal with six world powers and that it's been sent to capitals
for approval.
Abbas Araghchi made the comments to
the official IRNA news agency. He
said world powers and the Iranian government should respond within two
days about whether they accept the terms.
An official from a member country of the United Nations nuclear
agency who is closely following the talks said a preliminary agreement
was reached Friday evening. He demanded anonymity because he was not
authorized to comment on the closed negotiations.
While not a final deal, it maps out a first-step agreement for six
months as diplomats negotiate a final deal. A November deal calls for
capping Iran's uranium enrichment program in return for an easing of
some international sanctions
