Iran questions the utility of talks with the United States while Washington pledges a nuclear deal by Sunday.
The United States and Iran have announced a protocol accord covering nuclear issues, Lebanon, and the Strait of Hormuz. French officials welcomed the deal, predicting a rapid drop in fuel prices while cautioning that implementation must be closely watched. The announcement immediately grabbed headlines in France and beyond.
The accord is set to be signed in Geneva, with Washington insisting on a full nuclear deal by Sunday. The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the fragile situation in Lebanon will serve as early tests of whether the agreement holds or collapses.
