What Conclusions Are Analysts Deriving From Iran's Presence In The Meeting Held In Egypt?

According to analysts in Iran and the United States, Iran's high-profile attendance at the meeting in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt has paved the way for much-awaited and eventual negotiations between Washington D.C. and Tehran.  Although no direct and instant solution is envisaged in this instance however the chances of smooth carriage of negotiations in the long run between the two countries (Iran and the United States) have been boosted a great deal.  Despite of all the past altercations between the two countries including US President George W. Bush's claim of using any means possible (including force) to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, there are strong anticipations of the issue being handled with diplomacy as the United States is too preoccupied with the issue of Iraq's stability and the ongoing war there.  Nevertheless despite of all these positive vibes generating from Iran's presence at the meeting in Egypt, the stance of both the United States and Iran on the issue of Iran's uranium enrichment remains the same.
