LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) – President Barack Obama has arrived in Kentucky after delaying his departure by several hours because of the breakthrough in the Iran nuclear talks.

Obama departed the White House after commenting from the Rose Garden on Thursday’s outcome in the marathon negotiations in Switzerland.

Obama plans to discuss job training after touring a Louisville-based technology company.

After Kentucky, Obama heads to Hill Air Force Base in Utah for an appearance there Friday.

The Utah stop will be Obama’s first visit to the state as president. It also will leave him one state short of having visited all 50 while in office.
