Iran and six major world powers have managed to reach a preliminary agreement on ‘all the key aspects’ of a deal over Tehran’s controversial nuclear program, Russia’s FM has announced, adding that the sides have begun drafting the text.
Experts from Iran and P5+1 have started drafting a preliminary deal and the document could be expected either within the next few hours or later on Wednesday, Sergey Lavrov hopes. However, clearing the “technical details” of a final deal may take until June, he added.
“We can quite certainly say that on all the key aspects of the final settlement of this problem, the ministers have reached principal consent that will be, hopefully in the next hours, maybe a day, put on paper.
The White House announced that US President Barack Obama received an update on the talks from his national security team via a video teleconference, but did not give any details.
The deal would put restrictions on Iranian nuclear activities, which would prevent it from rushing towards nuclear capability while allowing it to develop a civilian nuclear industry.
The negotiations are opposed by some of Iran's regional rivals, most notably US allies - Israel and Saudi Arabia. Israel vigorously obstructed the negotiations, claiming that they would result in a “bad deal.”

Good for the world but we'll see how Israel will be dealing with this.

Now the onus is on Iran to be honest and abide by it.
time for BS and propaganda is over. If you are legitimate, then now is the time to prove it.
As for Israel, they can stick it as far as I'm concerned.
If they have the right to exist then so does Palestine, Becoming the Nazi's of the 21st century isn't the way to go about it.

If Iran drop a nuclear weapon on someone, then I don't think you will find a single soul in the world who will be against retaliation.
That's the best contribution to this topic you could come up with? a baited question?
Iran have had chemical and biological weapons for sometime, they haven't used them on Israel.
Question: You really do believe all the ring winged nonsense about Iran being the evil country don't you - you've fallen for the Bill Orielly nonsense. Forget about Israel or the USA and the crimes they have committed, Iran are the enemy, right?

1. I am not American
2. A nation dropping a nuke in peacetime for religous reasons is a crime worthy of retaliation. The USA dropping bombs during WW2 is not.
3. If you had any idea of my positions against the US on this board over the last 10yrs youd realise how wrong you are .

Ahh your one of those people. Jump on the I hate American bandwagon. you havent used that "america has been at war xxx years out of its creation " sound bite yet.
I am by no means Pro or Anti USA. every situation needs to be judged on its morals at the time. But you clearly dont agree.
Dropping the bomb on Hiroshima still didnt force the Japanese to surrender, it took 2 bombs to end the war. tell me, your extensive knowledge of those bombings is from the internet right?

The warhawks and chicken hawks on here wont be happy.
They were so hopeing for a "cool" war to watch on the idiot box via faux news at home.
Though lets not breath a sigh of relief. Chances are the world will get a Bush III in 2016 so we will still get a war most likely!
