This article is for subscribers only.
Talks on Iran’s nuclear program resumed today after a gap of more than a year, with Israel and the U.S. threatening military strikes to prevent the Islamic Republic from developing atomic weapons.
The so-called P5+1 group of five permanent United Nations Security Council members -- Britain, China, France, Russia and the U.S. -- plus Germany are meeting Iranian delegates in Istanbul for the first time since January 2011, when they broke up without agreement. Iran says it is developing nuclear technology to generate power and for medical purposes.
