The European Union told Iran on Monday it must suspend uranium enrichment, a few days after the Islamic state ruled out doing just that, as Tehran and the West engaged in diplomatic shadow-boxing ahead of nuclear talks this month.
Iran will not do what Europe says Iran must do.
I'm obviously no expert on that whole "nuance" thing, but I'd say this is a problem for diplomacy.
Still, I worry that Iran will compromise in some way that doesn't slow down their progress at all and we will call the illusion of diplomatic victory a success.
Like if Iran has enough enriched Uranium that they can afford to halt further enrichment for a while to look cooperative.
In Israel, this article notes the first thing that occurred to me about Israeli domestic moves to expand the governing coalition:
The deal to include the centrist Kadima Party was announced just a day after Netanyahu set early elections in motion. Now, With Netanyahu set to lead an overwhelming majority in parliament, it could have implications for a possible Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear facilities
Indeed. Splitting the difference on what to do about a nuclear Iran may be the easier nuance to grasp.
