Major Progress Made in Nuclear Talks between U.S. and Iran
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - The U.S. and Iran have made major progress in the past few days on an agreement on a nuclear deal, Israeli defense officials say. Iran would stop the process of enriching uranium to high levels in return for the alleviation of international sanctions. In the first stage, this would include releasing $20 billion in Iranian assets from frozen bank accounts in South Korea, Iraq, and at the International Monetary Fund. Israel opposes the understandings, concerned that such an agreement will neither set back its nuclear program nor reduce the danger coming from Iran.
