to be worked out and a principle disagreement is will the sanctions on iran will lifted in june when a final agreement here is reached or will they be phased out as the u.s., france and other allies want. if they are phased out, the u.s. officials believe they would have more continuing leverage with u.n. inspections to make sure iran is not cheating. iran, which says it s always wanted a peaceful nuclear program skpin cysts on its right to nuclear technology development has been resisting that, but is very pressed economically with the u.n. and u.s. sanctions and is looking for immediate sanctions relief. so those are the competing pressures. it could be resolved by midnight, at least to the point they will issue a joint statement or statement of principles and come back and fight again on the details another day. jose? thank you so much. i want to turn to our bureau chief. what are the biggest issues as far as the iranians are concerned?
