GENEVA - The United States sent a message to European leaders that it was willing to lift all sanctions on Iran, according to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, who said he had rejected talks with Washington while punitive U.S. sanctions remained in place.
Rouhani, speaking on his return from the United Nations General Assembly in New York said Germany, Britain and France had insisted on a joint meeting with U.S. officials. “It was up for debate what sanctions will be lifted and they had said clearly that we will lift all sanctions,” his website quoted him as saying.“Iran wanted me to lift the sanctions imposed on them in order to meet. I said, of course, NO!” he wrote.
Iran has ruled out bilateral talks with the United States unless it returns to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, abandoned by Trump last year, and eases the crippling economic sanctions that he has since imposed on the Islamic Republic.Iran was ready for negotiations but not in an atmosphere of sanctions and pressure, Rouhani said.
