Supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei weighed in on the status of the nuclear agreement between Iran and the U.S. this morning, questioning if negotiations “will bear fruit & lead to a deal” and saying the White House is “lying” in the fact sheet it published immediately following the announcement:
On outcome of recent talks, I’m neither for nor against it;according to officials,yet no measure has been taken& there’s no binding results.

It's all about the details.The disloyal side may want to stab #Iran in the back over the details;It is too early to congratulate.#IranTalks

What's been done so far secures neither the main deal nor its contents nor is it even clear whether #talks will bear fruit & lead to a deal.

I support the negotiators& agree w a deal which ensures nation’s interests but no deal is favorable to a deal agnst #Iran interests&dignity.

And here’s the kicker:
I trust our negotiators but I'm really worried as the other side is into lying & breaching promises; an example was White House fact sheet.

Hours after the #talks, Americans offered a fact sheet that most of it was contrary to what was agreed.They always deceive &breach promises.

Tell us again how an open letter from GOP Senators, which was basically an op-ed, is what’s going to hamper negotiations with Iran?
