According to the White House:

After many months [Ed: years?] of principled diplomacy, the P5+1 -- the United States, the United Kingdom, France, China, Russia and Germany -- along with the European Union, have achieved a long-term comprehensive nuclear deal with Iran that will verifiably prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and ensure that Iran's nuclear program will be exclusively peaceful going forward.

Reported at BBC, NYT, Reuters, and everywhere else. President Obama spoke about the deal for 15 minutes this morning.

The deal has been praised by Syrian President Bashar Assad and slammed by the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Text of the "Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action."

    Why shouldn't he slam it? Besides you should be looking at the other players in the area such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Turkey. Their opinions are mixed with Saudi Arabia siding with Israel and Egypt and Turkey cautiously optimistic.

    Turkey's a bit more than "cautiously" optimistic:

    "Full implementation of the agreements will bring peace, security and stability to the region [...]"
