National Security Adviser Susan Rice said Wednesday that the chance for a nuclear deal with Iran is 50 percent or less, as the deadline for talks approaches.
Discussion between Iran and the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council – China, France, Russia, United Kingdom and the U.S. – plus Germany, to stop Iran's nuclear program have been extended through Nov. 24. An agreement was reached on a preliminary joint plan of action last November.
"There is, frankly, no dramatic change in the nature of the relationship," Rice said at the Harman Center for the Arts based in Washington. "If we were to achieve an agreement on the nuclear program, that would be a very significant accomplishment, which would make Americans more secure and the region more secure."
Even if a deal is reached, Rice hinted that issues still would remain in the U.S.'s relationship with Iran.
"They have a record of supporting terrorism, they have a record of destabilizing the neighboring states and countries in the region," she said.
