nuclear iran talksIran would receive the first $550 million installment of a total of $4.2 billion in previously blocked overseas funds on or about February 1, a senior U.S. official said on Sunday, according to a Reuters exclusive report.

Under a November 24 nuclear agreement, six major powers agreed to give Iran access to $4.2 billion in revenues blocked overseas if it carries out the deal, which offers sanctions relief in exchange for steps to curb the Iranian nuclear program.

Some payments are contingent on Iran diluting its stockpile of 20 percent enriched uranium to no more than 5 percent enriched uranium. The U.S. official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, described the payment schedule as follows:

Feb 1 – $550 million (NOTE: February 1 is a Saturday, so this payment may need to happen on February 3);

March 1 – $450 million (payment for half of dilution);

March 7 – $550 million;

April 10 – $550 million;

April 15 – $450 million (payment for completion of dilution);

May 14 – $550 million;

June 17 – $550 million;

July 20 – $550 million (NOTE: July 20 is a Sunday, so this payment may need to happen on July 21).

        Their problem is, they invested it in Western Banks.
        They thought when they bought into a ‘Hedge Fund’, they would get something green they could plant on the dessert. :-)))))

          Their problem is to underestimate the power of their enemy.
          This money is not investment, it’s what China owes them in oil purchases that China cannot wire to Tehran because of the sanctions.
          Their problem is that they’re about to starve…

        never expected bugs to like me…

    2. Mekeneseh, This article will enlighten you of why the world think Iran is the superpower of the Mideast. Tell me of any Arab country or even Israel for that matter is capable of doing this.

      “disaster struck the U.S. military. Iranian state media reported that a top secret U.S. Air Force stealth drone — an RQ-170 Sentinel — had been brought down and captured intact. One of America’s most advanced pieces of unmanned, stealth airplane technology… was in the hands of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
      How could this happen? Engineers at the time speculated that Iran had tricked the Sentinel into switching into autopilot mode, jamming its communications to blind the drone, then feeding it false GPS data to convince it to land at an Iranian airbase. But today, the Pentagon is more interested in how to make sure that such a fiasco does not happen again”

        ur post almost made me cry n at the same time it made me really really angry, bcoz this is why this mollah regime is so h8ed in iran. while the living standards in iran have decreased bit by bit down to those of the african countries, these inhumane fanatics focus on hacking stupid air planes

        1. I don’t support any fanatics or mullah regimes, I just stated one of the facts of why the world considers Iran as the superpower of the mid east. Now get rid of the mullahs if they bother you through peaceful means and you’re set to be a proud nation.

        actually they were looking for a supreme dildo for el supremo..even if they had that drone they wouldn’t know what to do with it..i remember in the early 90’s before the first gulf war, the iraqi army was made to be one of the strongest well armed armies of the world, “million men army” and look what happened to it. to make all that technology work for you, you should know how to use it..i wonder how many missiles hit their targets in israel in 2006?? i bet you none. i mean don’t get me wrong, i think the iranians are smart, but smarter then who?? their stupid arab neighbors?

        OMG, how credulous, you’ll live to be a hundred with that level of naivety
        yeah we all saw the drone that Iran “allegedly” brought down intact, we also saw the letter Ahmadinejad sent to Lego, Inc. back then thanking them for such a magnificent performance.
        A superpower does not hand over its nuclear program in return for some $4-5 billion trickled in 0.5 billions parts every month or so. Go listen to people inside Iran and how they truly perceive the Geneva accord.
        Farting loud on OTV does not make you a superpower. It’s just noise, and farts never killed anyone.
