Opinion| The nuclear agreement in light of European fear, American rejection, and Arab anticipation
Despite the continued hope of the EU, as well as the overwhelming desire of the US to reach an agreement, indications confirm that Iran does not want to budge on the matter. This is especially true after it succeeded in reaching the nuclear threshold by publicly enriching uranium to 60%, producing the metal needed to manufacture a nuclear bomb and operating advanced centrifuges in its three controversial reactors. These are also the areas that Iran has denied the International Atomic Energy Agency access to for inspection.

Opinion| Vienna negotiations and the Arab countries
All reports indicate that the next round will be decisive and will set perhaps the final points for signing a new agreement with regional and international guarantees that will give Iran the green light to resume its nuclear programme. But, it will be outside the military framework, at least for the first five years, to allay the fears of its Arab neighbours, as well as some regional powers that used to take decisive initiatives to curb any potential danger, as happened before in Iraq in the eighties of the last century and Syria in 2007. In any case, it seems that we will see soon white smoke coming from the Vienna meeting’s room.
