Iran’s Top Leader Does Not Oppose Nuclear Deal

TEHRAN — Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader of Iran, voiced support on Saturday for his country’s nuclear deal with world powers WHILE EMPHASIZING THAT IT DID NOT SIGNAL AN END TO IRAN’S HOSTILITY TOWARD THE UNITED STATES AND ITS ALLIES, ESPECIALLY ISRAEL.

“After 12 years of struggling with the Islamic republic, the result is that they have to bear the turning of thousands of centrifuges in the country,” Mr. Khaenei said, referring to the United States and its five negotiating partners.

At the same time, Mr. Khamenei made clear that a single agreement did not mean Iran’s overall relationship with the United States would change, AND HE PROMISED TO CONTINUE IRAN’S SUPPORT FOR ALLIES IN THE REGION, INCLUDING PRESIDENT BASHAR AL-ASSAD OF SYRIA AND THE LEBANESE-BASED HEZBOLLAH MOVEMENT. HE PRAISED IRAN’S ANNUAL ANTI-ISRAEL RALLY, KNOWN AS QUDS DAY.
