Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Sunday slammed as a "big mistake" leaked remarks by Mohammad Javad Zarif, in which the foreign minister suggested the military was too influential in diplomacy. "The country's policies are made of different economic, military, social, scientific and cultural plans, including foreign relations and diplomacy," Khamenei said in televised remarks. Saying "that one part denies the other or contradicts... is a big mistake that must not be perpetrated by officials of the Islamic republic," he added, in reference to leaked audio comments made by Zarif. amh/kam/dwo
