Reuters - It is not a good time for Iran to negotiate with the United States, a senior Iranian parliamentarian said on Tuesday, a day after U.S. President Donald Trump said he would be willing to meet Iran�s leader without preconditions.

�If Trump had not withdrawn from (Iran�s) nuclear deal (with world powers) and had not imposed sanctions on Iran, there would be no problem with negotiations with America,� Ali Motahari, the deputy speaker of parliament, was quoted as saying by the state news agency IRNA.

�But negotiating with the Americans would be a humiliation now,� he said.
