I've Been Thinking:

TASS, the Russia news agency, was the first to report that the current talks with Iran taking place in Vienna are at a standstill. TASS was quoting a Russian diplomatic source inside he negotiations.

It should not surprise any of us. Iran really does not want this kind of an agreement. They want an agreement on their terms only.

The deadline will most certainly be extended. I have been predicting that ever since the April 2 framework agreement was signed.

Just because some nations think there there is a framework agreement does not mean Iran thinks that there is a framework agreement.

The sides are at odds.

Now - an agreement might still emerge. But if an agreement is signed it most certainly will be one which favors Iran and its nuclear program.

Why? Because Iran knows that the United States really wants an agreement. And Iran knows that they have the leverage in these negotiations.
