Trump Rules Out Meeting Iranian President Hassan Rouhani at U.N.

HeadlineSep 25, 2018

Meanwhile, President Trump announced on Twitter this morning that he would not be meeting with the president of Iran during the U.N. gathering. Trump wrote, “Despite requests, I have no plans to meet Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. Maybe someday in the future. I am sure he is an absolutely lovely man!” Over the weekend Iran blamed the United States for being behind an attack that killed 29 people during a military parade in the city of Ahvaz. Trump is addressing the U.N. General Assembly today.
