Vienna — Drafting of the final Iran nuclear accord officially got underway here today (June 18), but progress on the text was limited and many substantial differences remain, negotiators from Iran and six world powers said.
The parties have formally agreed on the title of the final agreement — “The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action” — Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said June 18, but progress on drafting the joint text beyond that was apparently halting and interrupted by consultations to narrow continued disagreements over elements of a final deal.
