Nevermind what our goals might be, just TECHNIQUE
In a previous professional life I negotiated with BOTH administrative units, and unions.
Especially
given the Iranians balking at the west’s ‘leak’ that all U-235 was to
leave Iran for Russia, this is the moment to elicit a TELL by simply
saying ‘well, we tried, but I guess now the Senate will vote, next
week.’ and LEAVING THE NEGOTIATIONS. If they want ANY deal at all, they
call FAST. But I think their desire was to drag these negotiations out
as long as they could so they had freedom to do what they need to do.

Iran Wants More Nuke Concessions as Talks Hit Critical Stage
LAUSANNE,
Switzerland—Iranian negotiators are becoming rigid and unmoving in
their stance on a range of key nuclear issues in talks, according to
multiple sources familiar with the negotiations who said Tehran is
angling to elicit as many concessions as possible from the United States
as the talks reach a critical stage ahead of the looming March 31
deadline.
Iran is pushing for major relief from economic sanctions
and the ability to continue sensitive research and development on the
nuclear and weapons fronts, according to sources quoted in the Iranian
state-controlled press on Sunday.
The Iranian side is said to be
digging in its heels over these issues as U.S. diplomats rush to
finalize a tentative agreement ahead of a self-imposed March 31
deadline.
“Sanctions and research and development are the areas
where Iran and the G5+1 still have differences,” one source close to the
Iranian diplomatic team was quoted as telling Fars News on Sunday.
Western
sources familiar with the U.S. stance confirmed the sticking points and
told the Washington Free Beacon that the pressure from Iran is likely
to force the Americans to offer more concessions on these fronts than
have previously been on the table.
“The Iranians are again
outplaying the Americans,” said one source in Europe familiar with the
negotiations. “They know they’ll have to give up certain things
eventually. So they’re digging in their heels on issues that mean
everything and preparing to give ground on relatively minor issues—but
not yet, and not until they see how much more the Americans are willing
to give.”
Previous concessions by the United States appear to have
motivated Iran to push harder on issues such as the possible military
dimensions of its nuclear program, as well as continued work on advanced
centrifuges and increased sanctions relief, according to a second
American source apprised of the demands being set forth.
