Iran nuclear deal: One agreement, wildly different reactions

In one corner, ardent supporters, like the White House, touted it as a resolution in which they didn't waver from their core beliefs. Iranian officials boasted the same.
President Barack Obama said the deal is a significant step forward.
"For the first time in nearly a decade, we have halted the progress of the Iranian nuclear program, and key parts of the program will be rolled back," Obama said late Saturday night.
"Iran has committed to halting certain levels of enrichment and neutralizing part of its stockpiles. ... And new inspections will provide extensive access to Iran's nuclear facilities and allow the international community to verify whether Iran is keeping its commitments."
He said those limitations are among several that will cut off Iran's most likely paths to a nuclear bomb.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani also lauded the deal struck between the P5+1 countries and Iran. But that's pretty much where the similarities stop.
Contrary to what Obama said, Rouhani said "all sanctions will be lifted" as part of the deal.
That's not the only difference in wording. Earlier, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said the written deal does not say that Iran can enrich uranium.
Rouhani, however, said the outcome means world powers have "recognized Iran's nuclear rights," including the right to enrich uranium.
"This right has been explicitly stipulated by this agreement, stressing that Iran will go on with enrichment," he said. "Enrichment will proceed similar to in the past."
According to the White House, Iran has agreed to stop enriching uranium above 5% purity. That's enough to produce electricity, but not enough to reach the level required to make a nuclear bomb.
