France: Any Iran nuclear deal must be verifiable

Any deal with the Iranian regime on its nuclear program must be verifiable and there are no guarantees on this yet, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said on Thursday.

Fabius told BFM TV: “We must be able to verify the sites,” “We don’t yet have certainty on this,” he added.

“We want a deal with Iran but … the deal must be verifiable, solid, robust and today we don’t have guarantees on this,” he said. “A deal that cannot be verified cannot be implemented.”

“We are not yet at the end of the discussion,” Fabius said.

Meanwhile, a U.S. official on Wednesday warned that the final stretch of international negotiations about Tehran’s nuclear program will be “pretty tough” as the weeks count down to a June 30 deadline for a historic agreement.

“As we expected after Lausanne (where a framework deal was struck on April 2), the next portion of this process will be pretty tough because we will be getting down to the details,” the U.S. official told reporters.

“You are all well familiar with the roller coaster ride of these negotiations and we all expected that this will get more difficult.”
