No compromise in sight on Iran nuclear deal, Germany says

WASHINGTON - Europe and the United States remain deeply divided over how to proceed after Washington's exit from the 2015 Iran nuclear accord, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said on Wednesday after back-to-back meetings with two senior US officials.

 

Maas issued his sober assessment after a meeting with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, saying the two officials had restated their known positions, but no new information emerged.

 

"I think we're still far away from a compromise," said Maas, who met earlier with John Bolton, US President Donald Trump's new security adviser, who is known for his hawkish views. "We're pursuing two completely different paths."
