A preliminary deal on Iran's nuclear program has been reached following marathon talks between Iran and 6 world powers in Switzerland.

The agreement will see Iran will shut down more than two-thirds of its centrifuges for 10 years, reduce 98 percent of its stockpile of enriched uranium for 15 years, dismantle³ a reactor⁴ that could produce plutonium, and accept verification.

In exchange, economic sanctions currently being imposed on Tehran are to be rolled back, but only after the United Nations confirms compliance⁵.

Negotiators are now working on the specifics required to complete a comprehensive deal by June 30th.

U.S. President Barack Obama is hailing it as historic, saying it meets Washington's core objectives.

However, Israel is dismissing the deal as being detached from reality.
