The launch of a dialogue between Iran and the United States is an important achievement for the Islamic Republic, said Aghapur Alshaki, an adviser to the Iranian president's economic cooperation.
"We have now reached the stage when both sides are in dialogue based on respect and prudence, this is a very important point. There will be no dialogue in a tense situation. This is one of the most important achievements, and the Islamic Republic was able to achieve it, "the ISNA news agency quoted the adviser.
US President Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed concern over Iran's nuclear program, claiming that Tehran's leadership is close to creating nuclear weapons, and the United States intends to prevent it. Tehran has stated that he has no plans to create nuclear weapons.
Trump sent a letter to the Supreme Leader of Iran Ali Khamenei in early March, saying they would rely on his nuclear program, otherwise military action.
