Iranian President says he sees possibility of reaching nuclear deal with US

Tehran, May 19 (UNI) Iran can reach an agreement with the United States if Washington stops "intimidating" Tehran, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Sunday evening during a meeting with Omani Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi.
"An agreement with the US [on Iran's nuclear program] is achievable, but a fundamental condition is necessary for this - the US side must stop imposing its conditions and intimidating Iran. Under no circumstances will we submit to force," Pezeshkian was quoted as saying by his office.
