NEW YORK (Reuters) - The speaker of Iran's parliament on Thursday predicted that the debate among Iranian lawmakers on the nuclear agreement between Tehran and major powers will likely be more dramatic than in the U.S. Congress, where Republicans have sought to kill the deal.

Earlier on Thursday Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said he favoured a parliamentary vote on the nuclear deal while calling for sanctions against Tehran to be lifted completely rather than suspended.
