Trump rejected Iran’s conditions for meeting Rouhani: Zarif
[PRESSTV] Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says it was US President Donald Trump
...The man who was so stupid he beat fourteen professional politicians, a former tech CEO, and a brain surgeon for the Republican nomination in 2016, then beat The Smartest Woman in the World in the general election...
who wasted his chances for a meeting with Iranian officials on the sidelines of a United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
gathering in New York by rejecting Tehran’s main conditions for such a meeting.

Zarif said on Saturday that Trump was merely trying to hold a meeting with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani
...Iran's moderate president, which he is, relative to his predecessor, which doesn't mean he's anything but a puppet of the nearest holy man...
during the latter’s stay in New York this week, adding that the US president was unwilling to accept that sanctions imposed by his government on Tehran should be lifted as a main precondition for talks with Iran.

He said, however, that a direct meeting between Trump and Rouhani had never been on agenda and Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
basically wanted a meeting between heads of states signatory to a 2015 agreement on Iran’s nuclear activity which has suffered since Trump’s administration withdrew from the deal in May 2018.

"Mr Trump did not say that this (lifting of sanctions) would be done after the meeting, but he was more inclined to have the meeting done and said there is also the possibility that sanctions would be lifted after the meeting," Zarif told the Persian service of the IRIB News as he was preparing to leave New York for Tehran.

The comments come after more than a month of speculations about a potential détente between Iran and the US amid growing tensions between the two countries.

#1 Good for Trump. You don't negotiate by giving away the store at the start.
