President Hassan Rouhani has expressed excitement over the
departure of America’s President Donald Trump set to make way for
President-elect Joe Biden.
Speaking at a televised cabinet meeting Wednesday, Rouhani
called on Joe Biden to return to the 2015 nuclear deal and lift sanctions
imposed on Tehran by Donald Trump’s administration.
“If Washington returns to Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal, we will
also fully respect our commitments under the pact,” he said, adding in
reference to Trump that “a tyrant’s era came to an end and today is the final
day of his ominous reign.”
During Trump’s reign, Iran and the US almost went to war after the US assassinated Iranian general Qasem Soleimani last January.
With Biden who was a member of the Obama administration
which negotiated the original deal entering office Thursday, hopes are high for
rapprochement.
At the televised meeting, Rouhani castigated Trump, saying
his four years in office “bore no fruit other than injustice and corruption
causing problems for his own people and the world.”
