Kerry says IRGC sorry to lose ‘nuclear umbrella’

Kerry says the Iranian Revolutionary Guards is opposed to the deal.

“The IRGC opposes this agreement, so they’re not sitting there thinking they’re getting the whole world,” says Kerry.

“They see themselves as losing the cover of the nuclear umbrella they hoped to have, for their nefarious activities,” says Kerry.

Regarding the 15-year deadline, Kerry details the various measures that Iran is forced to keep up “forever.”

“Under the additional protocol… please focus on what happens. There’s not some sudden break off after 15 years,” he says. IAEA safeguards go on forever, he says.
