Washington is more open to agreeing an interim set of principles for a final nuclear deal with Tehran to break a diplomatic impasse in talks and forestall a potential Israeli attack on Iran, the New York Times reported on Wednesday.
The newspaper, which reported last month that US President Donald counseled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu against an attack on Iranian nuclear facilities, cited sources familiar with the talks and Israeli thinking.
The United States has become more open to an interim declaration of common principles on a final deal to preempt such an attack, according the paper.
Israel on Wednesday rejected the report Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been threatening to disrupt talks by striking Iran's main nuclear enrichment facilities.
