Obama Mocks Republican Letter to Iran over Nuclear Talks #48578

Senator Tom Cotton, an Arkansas Republican, was the lead author of the letter to Iranian leaders

BBC AMERICA: US President Barack Obama has criticised a letter from Republican senators to Iran, accusing them of "interfering" in ongoing nuclear talks.

He said the 47 senators made an "unusual coalition" with Iran's hard-line religious leaders.

The letter reminds Iran that any deal is just an executive agreement unless it gets congressional approval.

Talks on Iran's nuclear programme are at a critical stage, with an outline agreement due on 31 March. (+ BBC video) » | Monday, March 09, 2015
