The European Union’s chief diplomat played down the prospect of a rapid revival of the Iranian nuclear deal, saying the chances of an agreement between Tehran and world powers had faded.
“I am less confident today than 28 hours before on the convergence of the negotiation process,” Josep Borrell told reporters in Brussels on Monday. “If the process doesn’t converge, the whole process is in danger. If the purpose is to close the deal quickly, it’s not going to happen.”
