The latest round of talks between the P5+1 and the Iranian government are set to resume on Wednesday, and after the last round ended just shy of a deal, there are high hopes that one will be reached in the next three days.
Reports have suggested that the deal that was almost reached at the last round of talks will more or less be the final agreement, with Iran offering to agree to a deal without any explicit acknowledgement of their right to enrichment, insisting the right is “self-evident” from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif says this is an “historical opportunity,” and that he believes there is a good chance for a deal to be finalized in these talks.
British Prime Minister David Cameron calling to talk to President Rouhani, the first call between British and Iranian leaders in a decade, also points to strong momentum toward a deal, though after France killed a pact last time when a signing ceremony was imminent, it’s impossible to say for sure if the pact will really be finalized this time around either.
I wouldn't do it without explicitly stated recognition of rights under NPT. I'd also insist on explicit language on the history of the use of 'inspections' for unrelated spying, and on just what low lifes it'd take, say, to lie their own nation into war on 'wmd' fictions.
News item from Europe…..Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived today in Russia for talks with President Vladimir Putin, in a last-minute bid to influence an emerging nuclear deal with Iran strongly opposed by the Jewish state.

there would not be a lasting deal with iran on any issue, let alone nuclear power.
iran would not be left in peace until west destroys iranian theocratic governance. and even any secular one unless it cries uncle.
Since Israel views any peace agreement with Iran as an "existential threat" to Israel, I assume we may expect a preventive bombing strike by the IDF against the peace negotiators. Which will be followed, I assume, by a stern admonishment to Israel by my (US) Government that the vaporization of the peace negotiators was "not helpful" to the peace process.
