It was proffered that several including Iran were waiting to see if "Says what he means and means what he says President George W. Bush" would be re-elected. It seems the answer is leading to positive results.

Diplomats: Iran Agrees to Suspend Uranium Enrichment

VIENNA, Austria – Iran has agreed to fully suspend uranium enrichment and linked activities that Washington asserts are part of a nuclear weapons program, diplomats said Sunday.

The diplomats told The Associated Press the Iranians apparently dropped earlier demands to modify a tentative deal worked out last weekend with European negotiators and had agreed to the conditions.

"Basically it's a full suspension," one of the diplomats said on condition of anonymity.

However, the diplomat said Iran had not yet fulfilled a key part of the deal – formally informing the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency of its decision and asking for agency inspectors to police adherence to its commitment.

"They have yet to see it in writing," he said, alluding to the International Atomic Energy Agency, which is based in Vienna. "Details are important, so they have to see it."

As negotiators for France, Germany and Britain struggled with their Iranian counterparts to bridge differences over the weekend, the IAEA delayed a report on Iran's nuclear activities scheduled for limited circulation.

A diplomat familiar with the IAEA said the delay was meant to give the two sides a chance to resolve the dispute and allow agency head Mohamed ElBaradei to include an Iranian commitment to full suspension of uranium enrichment and related activities in his report.

That report was now expected to be circulated Monday.
