VIVAnews - United States and Iran reportedly has have agreement fundamental abaout Iran's nuclear program. Citing page New York Times, officials in the administration of President Barack Obama said this in an effort to avoid a military strike against Iran.
The Iranian official was reported to have put off the conversation, and wait until the U.S. presidential election is over. Because Iran still want to know with whom they will negotiate, whether Obama or competitors in the U.S. presidential election, Mitt Romney.
But to quote the BBC page, the White House denied the news. The White House claimed it was ready to conduct bilateral meetings with Iran. However, there are no plans to negotiate as reported by the New York Times.
Speaker of the U.S. National Security Council, Tommy Vietor also denied there was a deal of U.S. negotiations with Iran. "It is not true that the U.S. and Iran have agreed to talks one on one or more meetings after the U.S. presidential election," said Vietor.
"We continue to ... a diplomatic solution and have to say as what you already know in advance that we may undertake preparatory bilateral meeting," said Vietor.
Currently, the talks between Iran and the P5 +1 negotiating group was still running slow. No progress in talks that also involve countries like the U.S., Britain, France, China, Russia, and Germany.
Hot topics
The issue of Iran was a hot debate in the U.S. presidential election. Iran will be a key topic in U.S. foreign policy in this presidential election. The last campaign ready made between Obama vs. Romney became the second candidate to reveal the determinants of foreign policy plans respectively.
Romney continues to accuse Obama for being soft on Iran. Obama rejected a military attack on Iran, either by the U.S. or Israel. But Romney did not prevent Obama considers Iran to build a nuclear bomb facility.
But Romney speech Vietor denied. "The president has been very clear that will prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. We will do that," said Vietor.
The U.S. also hoped Iran would not undertake the construction of nuclear weapons, or face sanctions and pressure harder.
