Negotiators work through night on Iran deal
Foreign ministers from the P5+1 countries must now contend with the clock as they work out remaining hang-ups.
LAUSANNE, Switzerland — Top diplomats from Iran and the six world powers (the five permanent UN Security Council members plus Germany, or P5+1) said they would be working late into the night on the eve of a self-imposed deadline to reach a political accord for a final Iran nuclear deal.
“There still remain some difficult issues,” Secretary of State John Kerry said March 30. “We are working very hard to work through those.”
“We are working late into the night and obviously into tomorrow,” Kerry said. “We are working with a view to get something done. There is a little more light there today, but there are still some tricky issues. Everyone knows the meaning of tomorrow.”
