No Agreement on Starting Date for Iran Deal
(AP-Washington Post) The UN will probably not begin expanded inspections under the Iranian nuclear deal until early next year, officials said Wednesday. Even then, they will be limited to sites the Iranians have confirmed and not those critics suspect may exist secretly. Officials involved in negotiating the Geneva deal say there is still no start date. They say the IAEA must verify that Iran is keeping its end of the deal before the clock starts ticking down on the agreement's six-month time frame and the start of sanctions relief. IAEA head Yukiya Amano may not submit a plan on verification until January because of the upcoming holiday period.
