Any Iran nuclear deal has tough road in US Congress: Senator McConnell

Washington: The top Republican in the US Senate on Sunday cast doubt on whether President Barack Obama will be able to win approval in Congress for any nuclear deal now under negotiation with Iran.

"I think it`s going to be a very hard sell, if it`s completed, in Congress," Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said during an interview on the "Fox News Sunday" broadcast. "We already know it`s going to leave Iran as a threshold nuclear state."
