GENEVA - 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.
"It was up for debate what sanctions will be lifted and they had said clearly that we will lift all sanctions," Rouhani said, according to his official website. "This action wasn't in a manner that was acceptable, meaning that in the atmosphere of sanctions and the existence of sanctions and the toxic atmosphere of maximum pressure, even if we want to negotiate with the Americans in the 5+1 framework, no one can predict what the end and result of this negotiation will be," he said.
