Iran says sacking of Bolton won't lead to talks with US

"The departure of US National Security Adviser John Bolton from President Donald Trump's administration will not push Iran to reconsider talking with the US," state news agency IRNA quotes Tehran's United Nations envoy Majid Takht-Ravanchi as saying. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani urged the United States to end its policy of "maximum pressure" on his country.

The resignation of White House National Security Adviser John Bolton will not lead to talks between Washington and Tehran, Iran said on Wednesday.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani urged the United States to end its policy of "maximum pressure" on his country, and reiterated threats that Tehran would cut its commitments to a 2015 nuclear deal further if necessary, state TV reported.

Last year, the United States pulled out of the nuclear deal, under which Iran agreed to curbs on its atomic program in return for access to world trade. Washington has since imposed what the administration calls a policy of "maximum pressure," including sanctions aimed at halting all Iranian oil exports.

Iran has responded with a series of steps to reduce its compliance with the nuclear deal, although it says that it still aims to keep it in place.

Trump has suggested he would be willing to hold talks with Iran to reach a new deal. Iran has long said that talks are impossible unless Washington lifts its sanctions first.

Bolton, a hardliner who held senior positions in the George W. Bush administration, left his position on Tuesday. Trump tweeted that he had fired him after rejecting some of his advice.

"The departure of US National Security Adviser John Bolton from President Donald Trump's administration will not push Iran to reconsider talking with the US," state news agency IRNA quoted Tehran's United Nations envoy Majid Takht-Ravanchi as saying.

He added there was no room for talks with the United States while sanctions against Iran remain in place, IRNA said.

Rouhani repeated previous Iranian demands that Washington relaxes its policies.

"The United States should understand that militancy has no profit, and must abandon its policy of maximum pressure on Iran," he was quoted as saying. "Iran's commitments to the nuclear deal are proportional to other parties and we will take further steps if necessary."
