A peace deal is within our reach and that Iran has agreed that it will never, ever have nuclear material that will create a bomb. There would be zero accumulation, zero stockpiling, and full verification. Weapons inspections would be conducted by the International Atomic Energy Agency, with possibly an American contingent as well.

Al Busaidi, a key mediator in ongoing talks between the US and Iran, met with Vance in Washington, DC on Friday. He said the nuclear negotiations have so far achieved significant, important, and unprecedented progress, according to the Oman News Agency.

Giving rising tensions in the region, Chiefs of Mission and embassies at addressee posts must refrain from public statements, interviews, or social media activity that could in any way inflame regional audiences, prejudice sensitive political issues, or complicate US relationships, the cable said. Chiefs of Mission are expected to avoid all commentary on issues that could heighten tensions or create confusion about US policy.

"If Iran gives a draft proposal, the U.S. is ready to meet in Geneva on Friday in order to start detailed negotiations to see if we can get a nuclear deal," a senior U.S. official said. The official confirmed the Trump administration and Iran may also discuss the possibility of an interim agreement before a full nuclear deal is agreed.
