US says all parties plan to stay past deadline

Negotiators in Vienna for make-or-break nuclear talks with Iran are all “planning to stay past” a June 30 deadline for a deal, a US official says Sunday, echoing comments from Iran.

The official also stresses that the US team was not concerned that Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif was returning to Tehran for the day, saying “we’ve always said that ministers may need to go back and forth” to consult with their capitals.
