China News Service, Beijing, December 16, Tehran News: Iranian President Rouhani said that if the United States lifts sanctions against Iran and returns to the Iran nuclear agreement, he is willing to meet with the new US President Biden.
"Iran is willing to fully abide by the agreement, but the premise is that the United States also does it." Rouhani said.
According to a Bloomberg report on the 16th, Rouhani emphasized that the United States must correct its mistakes.
But he also pointed out that compensation for losses is not a prerequisite for the restoration of the agreement.

Just the day before, Rouhani said at an internal government meeting that day that he called on those who "seek to defeat Iran through pressure and sanctions" to abandon this "wrong idea."
In July 2015, Iran reached a comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue with the United States, Britain, France, Russia, China, and Germany.
The U.S. government unilaterally withdrew from the Iran nuclear agreement in May 2018, and subsequently restarted and "increased" sanctions against Iran.
Iran has gradually suspended the implementation of some terms of the agreement since May 2019, but the country has promised that the measures are "reversible."
