Iran Blames Western Nations For Failed Nuclear Talks
More talks scheduled for November 20
Iran's foreign minister has blamed divisions between Western powers for the failure to agree a deal on its nuclear programme on Saturday.
Mohammad Javad Zarif rejected US Secretary of State John Kerry's claim that Iran had been unable to accept the deal "at that particular moment".
He said "no amount of spinning" could change what had happened in Geneva, but it could "further erode confidence".

Perhaps it would help if our negotiators stopped promising, "If you like your nukes, you can keep your nukes."
