Is Iran already disagreeing with the U.S. on sanctions relief in today’s Iran deal? Could be…
Here’s how Iranian President Hassan Rouhani sees it:
Upon #IranDeal implementation all sanctions will be lifted–not suspended. Otherwise,there was no need for 18-day round-the-clock #IranTalks

And here’s what President Obama, John Kerry and the administration have to say:

Kerry: "The relief from sanctions will only start when Tehran has met its key initial nuclear commitments."

Contrary to what critics claimed for weeks there is no "signing bonus". Iran must complete key nuclear steps before new sanctions relief.
