In the latest embarrassing blow to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who presided over the talks in Vienna, Abbas Araghchi insisted that Iran would refuse to be shackled by nuclear deal.
According to the CIA's Open Source Center, Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister has told state television that that he'd insisted the deal continued to allow Iran to 'buy weapons from wherever possible' as well as to 'provide weapons to whomever and whenever it considers appropriate'.
Araghchi's worrying claims come just one day after Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's highest religious authority, told supporters that nuclear deal would not change Iran's policy towards the 'arrogant' U.S. - comments Kerry admitted were 'very disturbing'.
Araghchi's show of defiance came on Iranian state television in comments that were translated into English and made public by the CIA's Open Source Center.
In the latest effort to make the deal more appealing to Iranian conservatives, Araghchi claimed that the final agreement struck in Vienna actually relaxed the terms of Iranian arms trade.
Despite the sale and purchase of weapons being one America's key concerns, the Obama administration eventually buckled and agreed to allow Iran to continue importing and exporting arms.
But Araghchi is said to have told Iranians that the historic agreement went even further and actually relaxed long-established restrictions on the countries Iran is allowed to trade arms with, effectively freeing it up to buy and sell arms 'anywhere and at any time'.

Looks like Hamas and the PLO will be armed to the teeth!
Kerry: Negotiating a nuke deal WHILE that country prominently blows up a model of your carrier ON TELEVISION.
But wait...the deal is they can’t for like 5 or 8 years...
not embarrassing to O+K at all.
Creating a nuclear-bomb Iran and seeing to it that the Iranian IslamoNazis have $150 billion of new $$$$$$ which they will obviously use to expand their already-deadly arming of terrorist murderers ‘anywhere and everywhere’ —
all part of The Plan. Desired, intended, foreseeable outcomes are not ‘embarrassing’ to their perpetrators....
rather, they are cause for celebration by them.
FUBO!! FUJK!! Idiots!! Traitors!!
Man, that John Kerry can NEGOTIATE!!!!!!!!!!!!
And Obama was doing his happy dance.
So.........
Finally someone uses the “T” word. How come the charge of treason has not been used against these people? Everything they do is against the best interest of this country.
Wow, Kerry that was a hell of a deal you made with Iran.
Thanks pabianice.
******
Kerry should have called Trump for advice. Too late.
Hillary: I hear that "President Hillary" will appoint Kerry as one of her top foreign policy advisers.
Sorry, Hillary, but I don't think you have the presidential skills to go up against the Iranian bullies, even with Kerry's help.
