Iran, World Powers Go Down to Wire in Nuclear Talks
(AFP/Yahoo) - Iran and world powers on Tuesday return for what could be the last day of so far stormy negotiations aimed at putting a peaceful halt to the Islamic Republic's disputed nuclear drive. Western officials said their patience was running out with Iran. The West is waiting for Iran to respond to an offer made last month and repeated on Monday that would see it halt enrichment to the dangerous level of 20 percent and ship out such existing material in return for some forms of aid. Iran has countered with a demand that world powers recognize its "right to enrich" -- something contradicting current UN resolutions -- and rescind an oil embargo that the European Union intends to implement fully on July 1.
