Raisi to the USA, 'go back to the nuclear deal'

(ANSA) - TEHRAN, June 21 - "My message to the US is this: return immediately to the nuclear agreement". The Iranian president-elect Ebrahim Raisi said today in the first press conference, which was attended by about 180 foreign journalists, including some Americans. "This - added Raisi - is the line of the current government (of President Hassan Rohani) and of the next one, all sanctions must be removed and there must be checks on this process". "We will support any negotiation that guarantees our national interests, but we do not intend to negotiate just to negotiate," Raisi said.
