Joe Biden

The Iranian president says the country has not seen any goodwill gesture from the new US administration yet, urging Washington to correct its wrong policies.

The Iranian government spokesman says Tehran is waiting for the new US administration to announce whether or how it will begin to deliver on its commitments as per the 2015 nuclear deal (officially known as the JCPOA).

Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the Islamic Republic and the United States need to hold negotiations, not on all issues, but on certain issues like oil or Persian Gulf security.

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has called on the new US administration to reject “failed assumptions” and seek peace and comity instead of embracing the “failed policies” of Donald Trump.

The Islamic Republic of Iran and the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) have signed an agreement on January 21 as the new US president has taken office.

The Iranian foreign minister has urged the new US administration to fulfill Washington’s commitments and lift sanctions on Iran, returning to the pre-Trump era.

Iran’s government spokesman says the new US administration has the opportunity to create a new prospect for Washington-Tehran relations.

The incoming US administration ought to fulfill its commitments under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action and the UN Security Council Resolution 2231 thoroughly as the first step to win Iran’s trust, the spokesperson for the Iranian government said.

Iran’s Government Spokesman Ali Rabiei has ruled out fresh negotiations between Tehran and Washington following Joe Biden's coming into office, saying the two countries’ return to their commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal needs no negotiation.

Iran’s first vice president says officials in the new US administration will have no choice but to give in to Iran's demands.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says what happened in the US Capitol Hill on Wednesday night proved how “weak” and “floppy” the Western democracy is.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says Tehran will welcome it if the incoming administration of US President-elect Joe Biden would choose to return to the rule of law and comply with its commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran.

Ali Shamkhani, the Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), says the issue of US return to the 2015 nuclear deal, officially known as the JCPOA, is “worthless” if all anti-Iran sanctions are not removed.

Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman says US President-elect Joe Biden should show in practice that he would like to re-enter the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Iran’s government spokesman has dismissed as "mere speculation" the reports that the US President-elect's team sent a message to the Islamic Republic.

Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman says there is a “striking contrast” between US President-elect Joe Biden’s comments and Donald Trump’s acts, but Iran must wait and see how the incoming administration will act.

The Iranian president says Tehran is not overjoyed at Joe Biden taking office as the next US president, but is happy to see President Donald Trump leaving.

Iran's President Hassan Rouhani says Tehran will not accept any preconditions, like the inclusion of its missile program and regional activities in the 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, and will not renegotiate the accord, officially known as the JCPOA.

Iran’s government spokesman says the US President-elect Joe Biden well knows what to do and what to avoid in order to win Iran's trust again.

Iran’s first vice president says the country must prepare itself for the scenario in which incoming US President Joe Biden refuses to lift anti-Iran sanctions.

The Iranian foreign minister says he had “professional relationship with US President-elect Joe Biden based on mutual respect” when he was a senator at the US Senate.
