The United Nations' nuclear agency failed to persuade Iran on Wednesday to let it resume an investigation into suspected atomic bomb research, leaving the high-stakes diplomacy in deadlock.

"At some point, the director general of the IAEA will have to return to the Security Council and say: ‘I can go no further. There has been no response. You have to take further action,'" Under Secretary of State Wendy Sherman told lawmakers in Washington. That could happen in June or in September, she said.

TWO TRACKS

Later, the European Union's foreign policy chief met Iran's nuclear negotiator for dinner in Istanbul to discuss the other line of talks which are a bid to resolve a row that could ignite war in the Middle East.

1. I think Iran's demands are the same as always

Get Israel(the one who is threatening to start a nuclear arms race in the middle east) to join the NPT. Even if Iran end's it medical and energy related nuclear programs, Saudi Arabia will develop or buy nuclear weapons because Israel possesses a huge arsenal.
