Trump on Friday denied the claim that the United States had offered to remove sanctions on Iran in exchange to begin negotiations.
that the United States had offered to remove sanctions in exchange for opening negotiations.
"Iran wanted me to lift the sanctions imposed on them in order to meet. I said, of course, NO!," Trump said in a tweet. Rouhani had said on his website, according to Reuters, that "America says that it will lift the sanctions." "It was up for debate what sanctions will be lifted and they had said clearly that we will lift all sanctions," Rouhani added.
Rouhani's declaration sent oil prices dropping, with WTI crude futures falling nearly 3%. But, following Trump's denial, oil regained some of those losses, with WTI trading down 1.7% on Friday at about $55.50 per barrel.
