"We're not there yet, I emphasize that," said U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on the latest round of nuclear talks to reporters in Vienna on Sunday.
Despite genuine progress made in the past few days, "We are not yet where we need to be on several of the most difficult issues," said Kerry after a meeting with his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif.
Kerry said, while he completely agrees with Zarif that Iran and world powers "have never been closer" to a deal, the negotiation could go either way at this point.
"We want a good agreement. Only a good agreement. We are not gonna shave anywhere at the margins just to get an agreement," he added. Endit
