Top Iranian commander Qassem Suleimani worked to undermine Iran’s diplomatic efforts, the country’s foreign minister and lead nuclear negotiator
reportedly said in leaked audio that offered a rare view of
the inner workings of the regime.
Javad Zarif
was in charge of Iran’s diplomatic engagement with international powers that led to the 2015 nuclear deal to remove sanctions in exchange for curbs on uranium enrichment.
In
three hours of leaked audio, he painted a picture of Iran as
a country where “the military field rules” and said the world view of the country’s leadership was “based on a polarised cold war”.
