Nuclear Negotiations: Iran appeals to world leaders as nuclear deadline nears

Iranian President Hassan Rohani appealed to world leaders including US President Barack Obama on Thursday as part of an intense diplomatic push to ensure that a deal on Tehran’s nuclear program can be reached ahead of a deadline next week.

Rohani wrote to the American president, US officials confirmed, as well as to the leaders of the five other powers heading efforts to resolve the 12-year standoff over Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

Talks on the subject resumed in the Swiss city of Lausanne on Thursday.

Negotiators are racing against the clock to meet a March 31 deadline by which it is hoped a framework for a deal can be agreed.
