US Hindering Agreement on Iranian Nuclear Program RIA Novosti, PUBLISHED 23.05.2014 The conclusion of the final international agreement on the Iranian nuclear program is being hampered by the United States, Head of the Center for Modern Iranian Studies Radzhab Safarov said. "It benefits the US ... This is an attempt to put pressure on Iran, to add such items to the agreement, which would then slow the Iranian activities in the field of high technology, cooperation in the field of nuclear energy with certain countries, including Russia," Safarov said during a roundtable organized by RIA Novosti on the P5+1 international talks on Iran’s nuclear program. In November 2013, Iran and the P5+1 group agreed in Geneva on the temporary limiting of Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for a partial halt of US and EU sanctions against Iran. A complete agreement guaranteeing the lack of a military component to Iran’s nuclear program is scheduled to be finalized by July 20.
