US, Iran may seal interim nuke deal in next round of talks — CNN

The US and Iran are closing in on a broad, interim nuclear agreement that may be signed in the next round of negotiations and that White House officials and others hope will lead to follow-up talks and define specific markers for implementation, CNN reports, citing unnamed sources familiar with the discussions.

The talks could reportedly end up forming an international consortium of Mideast countries and the UN atomic watchdog, which will enrich uranium for the Islamic Republic, though the report cautions that nothing has been agreed yet.

The deal doesn’t include Tehran’s ballistic missile program and isn’t expected to broaden to include more issues, the report says.
