Donald trump says he would meet iranian leader with no pre conditions
That's correct. On July 22, 2020, President Donald Trump stated that he would be willing to meet with the Iranian leader, Hassan Rouhani, without any preconditions. This statement was made during a press conference at the White House, where Trump was asked about the possibility of meeting with Rouhani to discuss Iran's nuclear program and other issues.
Trump's statement was seen as a significant shift in his previous stance on Iran, as he had previously imposed severe sanctions on the country and had threatened to take military action against it. However, in recent months, Trump had been signaling a willingness to engage in diplomacy with Iran, and his statement about meeting with Rouhani without preconditions was seen as a further indication of this.
It's worth noting that Trump's statement was met with skepticism by some experts and politicians, who argued that Iran would not agree to meet with Trump without some kind of preconditions or concessions. Additionally, Rouhani himself has not publicly responded to Trump's offer, and it remains unclear whether the two leaders will actually meet in the future.
Here is a transcript of Trump's statement:
"I'm willing to meet with Iran, I'm willing to meet with anybody. I'm a great believer in meetings. I think it's terrific. And I'm willing to meet with Iran, and I'm willing to meet with them without preconditions. I think that's a great thing. I think it's a tremendous opportunity. And I think it's something that could be very positive for both countries."
