Negotiations over the revival of the Iran nuclear deal, which reached an impasse and were suspended in March, will resume this week, according to participants in the talks.
A senior Biden administration official said Sunday that the United States has agreed to attend the new round of talks, which Iranian media said will convene in Doha, the Qatari capital. Previous rounds were held in Vienna. Qatar, which has good relations with both Iran and the United States, has engaged in shuttle diplomacy over the past several months as part of the effort to get the talks restarted.
U.S. intelligence estimates that Iran has gone from a “breakout time” of about one year to what is now only a few weeks. Breakout is the point at which Iran has amassed enough highly enriched uranium to fuel a nuclear weapon. Israel maintains its own unacknowledged nuclear arsenal. Iran has repeatedly insisted its nuclear program is for medical and other research, and not to build a bomb.
