US, Iran president may meet briefly at UN assembly

None

President Barack Obama and Iran's new president may meet briefly next week for the first time, marking a symbolic but significant step toward easing their countries' tense relationship.

 

An exchange of letters between the leaders has raised expectations for a revival of stalled nuclear talks, though Iran is still likely to seek an easing of international sanctions in exchange for significant progress. (AP)
