Iran said Monday its views have been converging with those of
France on ways to save a
nuclear deal at risk of unravelling since the US withdrew last year.
Government spokesman Ali Rabiei also suggested President Hassan Rouhani could meet US counterpart
Donald Trump if it served Iran's interests, while cautioning there was no need to meet an "agitator" in the current circumstances.
Rouhani has had a series of phone calls with French President
Emmanuel Macron in recent weeks aimed at salvaging the landmark 2015 nuclear deal between
Iran and world powers.
