DHAKA: Iran and major powers are still ‘pretty far’ from a deal aimed at preventing Teheran getting nuclear weapons.

A European diplomat involved in crunch talks in Switzerland said Thursday, reports The Straits Times.

‘I think we are pretty far from a deal,’ the negotiator said on condition of anonymity.

‘I really don’t believe that we are going to get a (framework) deal on Friday night.’
