Iran’s president, a heart surgeon by training, described their last meeting:

“There’s no specific ongoing health issues.

We met for seven plus hours, and he was healthy enough to withstand those hours.

From a medical standpoint, he’s completely healthy. Hear this from me as a physician and accept it.

He has no issues.”

Everything Washington is being asked to sign rests on this.

Reuters spoke to five sources close to the talks, who say the vote is stuck behind replacing all 32 Supreme Court judges and the five directors of the electoral council, with voter rolls and basic logistics eating another year after that.

María Corina Machado, blocked from flying home at least seven times this year, has been left out of the negotiations entirely.

Rubio’s argument for going slow is that whoever wins should not inherit an economic catastrophe, and he has a point about a country Maduro emptied out.

Here is the thing Washington seems to be missing.

The oil deals will outlast this administration, but the legitimacy of the government signing them will not, and contracts inked by an unelected caretaker are exactly the kind that a future Venezuelan congress tears up.

Getting Machado home and a date on the calendar is what makes those barrels permanent.
