(Fars-Iran) Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Maj.-Gen. Hassan Firouzabadi sent a message to his country's team of negotiators on Sunday mentioning specific redlines that should receive due attention in a final nuclear deal. He reminded Foreign Minister Zarif and his negotiating team of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei's recent order to block any possible pathway that enemies could take to infiltrate "Iran's defense and security affairs under the pretext of nuclear supervision and inspection." "Iran's military officials are not at all allowed to stop the country's defense development and progress on the pretext of supervision and inspection and the country's defense development and capabilities should not be harmed in the talks." "Our support for our brothers in the resistance (front) in different places should not be undermined in the talks at all," he added.
