Fox News
Iran's president-elect said Monday he wouldn't meet with President Joe Biden nor negotiate over Tehran's ballistic missile program and its support of regional militias, sticking to a hardline position following his landslide victory in last week's election.
"The U.S. is obliged to lift all oppressive sanctions against Iran," Raisi said at the news conference. Former secretary of state says Biden administration was given an 'enormous' amount of leverage on Iran on 'Sunday Night in America' Raisi sat in front of a sea of microphones, most from Iran and countries home to militias supported by Tehran. He looked nervous at the beginning of comments but slowly loosened up over the hourlong news conference.More Related News
