Trump says US has not reached out to Iran for talks
US President Donald Trump on Monday says Washington has not reached out for talks with Iran and that if Tehran wants to negotiate, it will have to take the first step.
“The Fake News put out a typically false statement, without any knowledge that the United States was trying to set up a negotiation with Iran. This is a false report,” Trump writes in a tweet that does not specify what report he is referring to.
“Iran will call us if and when they are ever ready. In the meantime, their economy continues to collapse — very sad for the Iranian people!” Trump tweets.
