John Kerry in Geneva for nuclear talks

US Secretary of State John Kerry landed Saturday in Geneva to participate in the talks in which the permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany (P5+1) are trying to reach a deal with Iran over its nuclear program. The latest round of talks beginning on Wednesday could not reach a concrete deal. Even Kerry reportedly said that he had no expectation of affirmative conclusion.  "After consulting with EU High Representative [Catherine] Ashton and the negotiating team on the ground, Secretary Kerry will travel to Geneva with the goal of continuing to help narrow the differences and move closer to an agreement," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki had said in a statement. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius also arrived in Geneva.  Landing in the Swiss city on Saturday morning, Fabius said that he had come to Geneva to make a concrete deal with Iran. Russian FM Lavrov arrived in Geneva on Friday and the British, German, and Chinese foreign ministers are also expected later Saturday.  The first-step of the agreement would be about rolling back Iran's nuclear program in exchange for the easing of U.S. and international sanctions on Iran. The preliminary text for a more comprehensive compromise will be written but the deal that parties agreed on will be valid for six months.
