Iran does not rule out the possibility of a meeting on the sidelines of the annual U.N. General Assembly in New York on reviving its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani said on Monday.
Months of indirect talks between Iran and the United States have foundered over several issues including Tehran's insistence that the International Atomic Energy Agency close its investigation into uranium traces found at three undeclared sites before the pact is revived, and a U.S. guarantee that it would not walk out of any nuclear agreement again.
Kanaani, however, dismissed the possibility of a bilateral meeting between Iranian and U.S. officials in New York.Tehran and Washington have had no diplomatic relations since 1979 and remain at odds over many issues.
