PARIS, May 7 — The European Union is making a last-ditch attempt to save the Iran nuclear deal and break a deadlock, the Financial Times reported today.
The EU’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell told the Financial Times that he was seeking a “middle way” to end the impasse, which threatens to scupper more than a year of European diplomatic efforts to seal a deal.
The deal would lead to the United States re-joining the 2015 accord and lifting sanctions on Iran, and in return the Islamic republic would drastically reduce its nuclear activity, the FT reported. — Reuters
