Reuters: Iranian president says U.S. offered to remove all sanctions on Iran in exchange for talks
GENEVA (Reuters) - The United States offered to remove all sanctions on Iran in exchange for talks but Tehran has not yet accepted the offer due to the current “toxic atmosphere”, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on Friday.
Rouhani, speaking on his return from the United Nations General Assembly in New York, said he met there with U.S. officials at the insistence of Germany, Britain and France.
“It was up for debate what sanctions will be lifted and they (the United States) had said clearly that we will lift all sanctions,” Rouhani said, according to his official website.
Iran was ready for negotiations but not in an atmosphere of sanctions and pressure, the Iranian president said.

Rouhani has studied American media and Democratic party tactics evidently. Big Lies sell. Well it really isn't an American invented tactic. I think Lenin invented the methods to turn a lie into a big public lie that an entire population would hear and see. Then Hitler and Stalin refined it. American Democrats and Media are refining it further in the Web age. But same thing, birds of a feather flock together.
