Kerry to brief US lawmakers
Secretary of State John Kerry yesterday urged US lawmakers to allow talks with Iran on curbing its nuclear program to be completed without interference, amid threats of new sanctions.
Kerry is planning to brief lawmakers today and tomorrow about the parameters of the deal reached after eight days of tough bargaining in Switzerland earlier this month.
鈥淚鈥檒l lay out the facts,鈥 Kerry told CBS鈥檚 鈥淔ace the Nation鈥 when asked about a different narrative emerging from Iranian leaders about what was agreed as they reach for a final comprehensive accord due by June 30. 鈥淓verything I have laid out is a fact. And I鈥檒l stand by them. In the end it鈥檚 really the final agreement that will determine it.鈥
The State Department angered Iran when it released a fact sheet on April 2 as the outlines of the deal were being announced in Lausanne, which appeared to differ from the Iranians鈥 understanding.
鈥淲e had this same dueling narratives, discrepancies, spin, whatever you want to call it with respect to the interim agreement鈥 reached in November 2013 under which Iran froze parts of its nuclear program in exchange for limited sanctions relief, Kerry said.
