VIENNA — Substantial progress has been made in resolving key issues in the past days, putting a final Iran nuclear deal within reach, but big and small differences still need to be overcome to close the deal, diplomats said July 4.
“We never progressed as far as we [have] now, we never went so far in drafting, however there are still differences,” Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in an interview with Iran’s state television (IRIB) Channel 1 on July 4.
