Heading to NY, Iran’s president ‘invites’ the US to dinner
Iran’s president says he is “inviting” the US to dinner as he heads to New York for the UN General Assembly.
President Hassan Rouhani uses an analogy of a dinner party on Sunday to describe how countries are benefiting from the 2015 nuclear deal.
Rouhani describes the Americans as “sitting in another room” at the party.
Rouhani says: “They can adopt a new path and come to the room where the dinner table is. That’s alright in our opinion. If they change their bad temper they can enjoy the dinner table.”
