Early October New Deadline for Iran

quote[With Iran still resisting a freeze on its nuclear activities, the United States and five partners have decided to set yet another deadline in hopes that Iran will finally agree to terms paving the way for substantive talks on its nuclear program.

Under the plan, reached by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and her counterparts from five other nations over a late-night dinner Tuesday, Iran will have until early October to agree to suspend its nuclear activities as the negotiations take place, diplomats said. At the meeting, Rice backed off the U.S. demand that the U.N. Security Council begin imposing sanctions over Iran's failure to meet previous deadlines, but noted that there is intense interest in the issue on Capitol Hill.]


Is the overall picture clear?

Am I beating a dead horse?
