Reuters: Trump says ready to meet Iran's president to solve nuclear impasse

BIARRITZ, France (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he would meet Iran’s president under the right circumstances to end a confrontation over a 2015 nuclear deal and that talks were underway to see how countries could open credit lines to keep Iran’s economy afloat.
