Information suggest high chances of a deal in Vienna: Al Mayadeen
Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that information from more than one source suggest a deal will be reached soon in the Vienna Talks.
According to the Russian delegate, Mikhail Ulyanov, the Vienna Talks "are almost over", and two issues remain outstanding, which can be resolved in the next 24 to 48 hours.
The Iranian delegation's advisor in Vienna Mohammad Marandi also tweeted saying that after 11 months of talks, it's only natural that an agreement would be close.
It is only natural to be close to the final agreement after 11 months of long and difficult talks. However, it requires an extra effort to resolve a couple of important remaining issues, before one can say the negotiations are done.
