Kerry drops Iran’s past weapons tests as part of nuclear deal

US Secretary of State John Kerry now says that the US wouldn’t make Iran’s accounting of any past atomic weapons research as a condition for reaching a deal. “The possible military dimensions, frankly, gets distorted a little bit in some of the discussion, in that we’re not fixated on Iran specifically accounting for what they did at one point in time or another,” Kerry said. “We know what they did… What we’re concerned about is going forward.”
DEBKAfile: The US has therefore dropped the demand for Iran to “come clean” on the weapons tests it carried out at the Parchin military complex, while protesting that its program was entirely peaceful.
