While most Iranian officials are praising the implementation of the nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers that required Iran to reduce its nuclear capabilities for sanctions relief, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has expressed concern that the United States may fall short on its obligations in the nuclear deal.
In response to a letter from President Hassan Rouhani, Khamenei’s website published a response thanking the president, the nuclear negotiators and specifically Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif for their efforts in the negotiations and removing the sanctions. However, Khamenei added five points of concern.
