Iran says it will respond to Trump letter after ‘full scrutiny’
Iran will respond to a letter by US President Donald Trump “after full scrutiny,” foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei says.
Last week, an Emirati official brought a letter from the US president proposing nuclear talks with Tehran, which Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei seemingly rejected, saying such a proposal was “deception” from Washington.
