America´s top negotiator leading talks to curb Tehran´s nuclear ambitions yesterday, called on Iranian leaders to “make the right choice,” saying now was the time to reach a deal.
“If Iran truly wants to resolve its differences with the international community — and facilitate the lifting of economic sanctions — it will have no better chance than between now and November 24,” Undersecretary of State Wendy Sherman said.
“This is the time to finish the job.” The six powers leading the talks with Iran, known as the P5+1, have set the November deadline to reach a comprehensive deal.
The aim is to close all of Tehran´s avenues towards developing an atomic bomb, by cutting back its nuclear enrichment program, shutting down suspect facilities and imposing tough international inspections.
In return, the global community would suspend and then gradually lift crippling economic sanctions imposed on the Islamic republic.
