Kerry says ‘no one’ presented viable alternative to Iran talks

US Secretary of State John Kerry says “no one has presented a viable alternative” to the current negotiations between the P5+1 and Tehran, a direct rebuttal to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s claim that he offered a “practical alternative” during his speech to Congress on Tuesday.

“Simply demanding that Iran capitulate is not a plan,” Kerry says, according to AP, in an apparent dig at Netanyahu.

The purpose of the talks is “not to get any deal, but to get the right deal. One that can withstand scrutiny,” he says.
