Iran,Six World Powers Reached to a Historic Agreement on Nuclear Deal
Finally after 18 days of precise negotiations and discussions on Iran’s nuclear deal the six world powers and Iran have reached to a historic agreement on nuclear deal on Thrusday reports indicated.
The deal includes a compromise that would UN inspectors to press for monitoring visitis to Iranian military sites.
But access at will to any site would not necessarily be granted and even if so, could be delayed, a condition that critics of the deal are sure to seize on as possibly giving Tehran time to cover any sign of non-compliance with its commitments.
Under the deal, Tehran would have the right to challenge the U.N request and an arbitration board composed of Iran and the six world powers that negotiated with it would have to decide on the issue.
Still, such an arrangement would be a notable departure from assertions by top Iranian officials that their country would never allow the U.N’s International Atomic Energy Agency into such sites. Iran has argued that such visits by the IAEA would be a cover for spying on its military secrets.
While access is a key part of monitoring envisaged cuts on Tehran’s present nuclear activities, it is also important for the IAEA as it tries to kick-start nearly a decade of stalled attempts to probe allegations that Iran worked on nuclear arms. Washington says that Iran must cooperate with the IAEA’s probe as part of any overall deal before all sanctions on it are lifted.
The Iranians insist they have never worked on weapons and have turned down IAEA requests to visit sites where the agency suspects such work was going on, including Parchin, the military complex near Tehran where the agency believes explosives testing linked to setting off a nuclear charge was conducted.
Iran’s acceptance in principle of access to military sites will give the agency extra authority in its attempts to go to the site and its demands – previously rejected by Tehran – to interview scientists it suspects were involved in the alleged nuclear weapons work.
Any deal will go to the U.N. Security Council, which is expected to endorse it by the end of the month, to start the mechanics of implementation – long-term, verifiable limits on Iranian nuclear programs that could be used to make weapons in exchange for an end to sanctions on the Islamic Republic.
Comments from both senior Republican and Democratic senators on Sunday suggested that any final deal would also face tough scrutiny in the US Congress.
“The parts of the deal are there,” said a senior official from one of the six countries. “We still need to put the finishing touches together. All sides have to decide now. It’s time to say ‘Yes’.”
A senior Iranian official said 99 percent of the issues had been resolved, adding: “With political will, we can finish the work late tonight and announce it tomorrow.”
“All the hard work has paid off and we sealed a deal. God bless our people,” it quoted one of the diplomats as saying.
The following deal will not only impact Iran’s economy but also the region countries will be benefited.
The agreement is being achieved after months of ongoing negotiations in between Iran, 5 plus 1 powers in the world.
Iran’s nuclear final session was held behind the sealed doors and media were not permitted to cover the session as live.
