Washington Free Beacon: Report: Obama Seeks Meeting With Iranian President
President Barack Obama has sent two letters to senior Iranian leaders in recent months requesting a meeting with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, according to Persian language reports recently translated by a Middle East research organization.
“President Obama asked to meet with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in two secret letters sent in late March to both Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and President Rouhani,” according to the Middle East Media Research Institute, or MEMRI, which translated a Farsi-language report published Tuesday by a website affiliated with Iran’s Green movement.
Obama purportedly wrote in the correspondence “that Iran has a limited-time opportunity to cooperate with the U.S. in order to resolve the problems in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen, and promised that if Iran agreed to a meeting between him and Rouhani, he would be willing to participate in any conference to this end,” according to MEMRI’s translation of the report.

WNU Editor: It looks like the Iranians leaked these letters deliberately to coincide with President Obama's trip to Saudi Arabia (which is today). It does not take a genius to know that the Iranians are deliberately trying their best to embarrass President Obama right now.

More foreign policy by utter concession coming up.
There is the smell of desperation here, but of whom and how much? Obama is obvious, but things have not gone that well for the Iranians, especially since details of the so called "agreement" have been leaking out and the moves of a Mr. Putin.
