Washington is willing to speak with Iran "with no preconditions", US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Sunday, but stressed his country would continue working to rein in what he called Iran's "malign activity", ONA reports citing teh Associated Press.
"We are prepared to engage in a conversation with no preconditions. We are ready to sit down with them," Pompeo told a joint news conference in Switzerland with Swiss Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis.
"The American effort to fundamentally reverse the malign activity of this Islamic Republic, this revolutionary force, is going to continue," Pompeo added.
Iran has repeatedly said it would not talk to the US while it is under renewed sanctions.
Pompeo's latest comments come amid continuing tensions between Washington and Tehran.
