In a post on his Twitter early on Tuesday, an adviser to President Rouhani Hamid Aboutalebi said "respecting the Iranian nation’s rights, reducing hostilities and returning to the nuclear deal are steps that can be taken to pave the bumpy road of talks between Iran and America."
He underlined that to pave the way for talks with Iran, the United States should return to a 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and six major powers.
Aboutorabi's remarks came after Trump said on Monday that he would be willing to meet Iran's Rouhani and officials "without preconditions" to discuss how to improve ties after he pulled the United States out of the Iran nuclear deal, saying, “If they want to meet, we will meet.”
