A new deadline has been set for the completion of an Iranian nuclear deal.

In failing to reach an agreement before yesterday's deadline, the P5+1 grouping and Iran have decided⁷ to push forward the negotiation⁸ window to the end of June.

The two sides have agreed to reconvene next month for a new round of talks.

The P5+1, which is made up of China, the US, the UK, Russia and France as well as Germany, have agreed with Iran to try to forge a high-level political agreement by March.

The technical details are to be sorted out by July.
