WASHINGTON: US President Barack Obama conferred with key national security advisors on Tuesday about nuclear talks with Iran, amid suggestions a deal may be at hand.
"Tonight, the president convened a secure video teleconference with members of his national security team," said National Security Council spokeswoman Bernadette Meehan.
Obama was briefed on ongoing talks in Switzerland by Secretary of State John Kerry and Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz.
Russia and Iran's foreign ministers claimed a breakthrough in talks Tuesday, on a deal that would see Iran curb its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief.
