Iran nuclear talks: John Kerry arrives in Vienna
Sunday, 13 July 2014
US Secretary of State John Kerry has landed in Vienna to join negotiations on Iran's nuclear programme as they enter their final week. Talks have been continuing between Iran and the P5+1 group, with a deadline of 20 July for an agreement. An interim deal was reached last year but differences remain between the two sides. World powers suspect Iran is seeking nuclear weapons - a charge Iran strongly denies. Iran insists it is enriching uranium to fuel power plants and for medical needs, and wants international sanctions to end. Differences remain over how much uranium enrichment capacity Iran should be allowed to keep, as well as other issues Iranian officials have suggested that the deadline could be extended for another six months to allow negotiations to continue, according to BBC.
