Iran-nuclear talks: negotiations for negotiations, for how long?




Today is Thursday, April 2st. While the negotiations were supposed to be settled by March 31st, the parties have failed to reach any agreement yet. The main problem is lifting of the sanctions.


The decision was to issue a statement and continue the negotiations.
Meanwhile, the White House spokesman said on Tuesday that if a political agreement is not achieved, the American negotiators will not wait for June 30th, the final deadline, to pull out of the nuclear talks with Iran.
On the other hand, it is unlikely to reach a final agreement considering internal differences within the circle of Iranian leaders. The only solution for the religious dictatorship that is the main source of export of fundamentalism to the region including Yemen, is holding on to a firm stance. Now is the time to ask a question from those appeasing the mullahs:
How long will these futile negotiations last?
How long do you want to negotiate with dictators and at whose expense?

The continued detention of this refugee is while guilty party in this accident was the driver of a Humvee. All the existing evidence on this suspicious car accident indicates an evil scheme to put pressure on the residents of Camp Liberty.
Meanwhile, Mr. Safar Zakeri has finally received appointment for a critical surgical operation in a Baghdad hospital after three years of anticipation and enduring medical restrictions.
The U.S. administration and the UNAMI who have repeatedly made written commitment to ensure the safety and security of Camp Liberty residents, have not yet taken any serious measure to secure an end to this hostage-taking.
