We also look at what stopped an agreement between the two sides, after differing accounts emerge.

  • Well, it's Victoria and Nick back with you on Newscast today.

  • Morning, Nick.

  • Hi, Vic.

  • And things have unravelled.

  • Just yesterday, we were talking to newscasters about the significance of the US and Iran being in the same room together.

  • And of course, we listed the stumbling blocks, didn't we?

  • Yeah.

  • And I mean, that clearly was a big deal.

  • It was 21 hours of talks.

  • But let us not forget, Vic.

  • The United States and Iran have not spoken at this level since the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979.

  • So right now, the stumbling blocks were clearly just too big.

  • We have been at it now for 21 hours and we've had a number of substantive discussions with the Iranians.

  • That's the good news.

  • The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement.

  • And I think that's bad news for Iran much more than it's bad news for the United States of America.

  • We go back to the United States having not come to an agreement.

  • We 've made very clear what our red lines are,

  • what things we 're willing to accommodate them on and what things we 're not willing to accommodate them on.

  • And we've made that as clear as we possibly could.
