Tehran: Iran will not allow US domestic politics to derail nuclear negotiations, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said on Wednesday, after US President Barack Obama conceded that Congress will have the power to review any final deal.
Republicans and some Democrats in Congress had pressured Obama to allow legislative oversight of the nuclear negotiations.
"That is an issue related to their domestic affairs. We are dealing with the American government," Afkham said at a news conference carried by state television.
The development injects a new element of uncertainty into the delicate final stages of negotiations between major powers and Iran aimed at curbing Tehran`s nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief.
