Iran says rudimental agreement reached with Russia

Could this be a Tuesday sign of Hope? Has Iran finally come to their senses? Has Russia saved the world from war? Let's read on and be disappointed...probably.

Iran and Russia have reached a rudimental agreement on principles over a Russian compromise proposal of joint uranium enrichment venture.

A rudimental agreement, or an agreement that has yet to actually take form, on principles of a compromise. This is a very fancy way of saying that the talks yeilded absolutely nothing isn't it? I mean, jeez, you have to break out a fucking dictionary to figure out what the fuck this means. And survey says...it basically means nothing.

The two sides discussed Russia's proposal that the two countries establish a joint venture in Russia to enrich uranium for Iran.

Okay, well, I guess that would be quite helpful in combating Iran trying to obtain nuclear weapons. I don't trust Russia much, but shit, I trust them a hell of a lot more than I trust Iran.

The United States and the European Union (EU) have accepted the Russian proposal, both urging Iran to accept the offer and return to a moratorium of its uranium enrichment activities.

So maybe there is hope for this yet.

UPDATE!

No deal in Moscow nuclear talks

This headline was posted one hour after the previous one I was commenting on. All hope was lost, one hour later. One hour!

Talks between Iran and Russia on a proposal by Moscow to enrich uranium for Iran ended in the Russian capital yesterday without a deal being struck.

Not even a rudimental agreement on principles?
