Today was the deadline (is that like a red line?) for an agreement with Iran regarding its nuclear development. With no progress being made (i.e., Iran not giving up any demands), the talks have been extended to July 1, 2015. A new red line.
Vienna, Austria (CNN) -- A new deadline for a political framework agreement for Iran's Nuclear talks has been set for March 1, 2015, a Western diplomat tells CNN on Monday, with a deadline for final agreement including annexes on July 1.
Negotiators had been scrambling to reach a deal on Iran's nuclear program before a Monday night deadline. The negotiators included representatives from Iran and the P5+1 countries -- the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council (the United States, Russia, China, France and Britain), plus Germany.
The parties involved will release a statement Monday citing "good progress" from their talks in Vienna, a Western diplomat told CNN. The negotiations will reconvene at a lower level -- below the level of foreign ministers -- in the coming weeks.
...
And the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, who was not part of the Vienna talks, said last week that Iranian authorities continue denying his agency access to a sensitive military complex suspected of being a site of nuclear activities.
