Iranian President Hassan Rouhani is calling for a new push to resolve the standoff with the United States over Iran’s nuclear program. In an interview on state television, Rouhani said the international community should take advantage of the opportunity created by his recent election, in which he pledged “constructive interaction” with the world. Rouhani says he will hold talks with the United States and other world powers at the General Assembly in New York later this month. On Tuesday, the White House announced it will ease longstanding obstacles to humanitarian and goodwill activities between the United States and Iran, including athletic exchanges and the provision of health services.
