| US offers Iran President Rouhani 'willing partnership' |
| 2013-08-05 |
| [BBC.CO.UK] The US has offered Iran a "willing partnership", after President Hassan Rouhani was inaugurated in Tehran. The White House said Iran now had a chance to allay fears over its nuclear programme and meet its international obligations. Mr Rouhani used his inauguration speech to promise a government of moderation for all Iranians, but also called for international sanctions to be lifted. US-Iran relations soured under ex-President Mahmoud Short RoundAhmadinejad. He regularly made inflammatory speeches denouncing the US and Israel. Analysts said Mr Rouhani's inauguration speech was conciliatory in tone, and he appeared to be reaching out to groups inside and outside Iran. "In international interactions, my government will try to build mutual trust between Iran and the regional and global countries," he told parliament. |
