CNN: Iran's president says no talks with Trump until sanctions are scrapped
Renewed hopes for talks between US President Donald Trump and his Iranian counterpart Hassan Rouhani were dealt a blow on Tuesday when Rouhani said there would be no meeting until economic sanctions imposed on Tehran are removed.
"No positive development will happen in Iran-US ties without them lifting sanctions and abandoning their hostile actions," Rouhani said in a televised speech -- a day after Trump said there was a "really good chance" the men could meet in the coming weeks.
"We will change our behavior towards those who imposed sanctions on the Islamic Republic of Iran and committed economic terrorism, if they show remorse," Rouhani added.
The Iranian leader's remarks came in the wake of discussions at the G7 summit in Biarritz, France about potential Rouhani-Trump talks.

Dream on old whisk broom face. The glory days telling the two surrender monkees what you want are gone.
By the way, did Mr. Huntley wear out the period key on his typewriter? Yet to note his commentary so far.
