Iran raised the possibility that talks to rescue its nuclear deal with world powers could extend beyond August, when President Hassan Rouhani is set to be replaced by a hardline judge Ebrahim Raisi. Diplomats ended their latest round of negotiations in Vienna on Sunday and haven’t said when they’ll reconvene. They are trying to restore a 2015 agreement that limited Iran’s atomic activities in return for the easing of U.S. sanctions. “If no deal is reached by end of the Rouhani government, then the Raisi government will be in charge” of the negotiations, Iranian government spokesman Ali Rabiei told reporters on Tuesday. Envoys have gone back to their capitals. “The task is to make full use of this break to ensure that all participants get final political instructions on the remaining controversial issues,” the head of Russia’s delegation, Mikhail Ulyanov, said in a tweet.
