Need to Help US With Face-Saving Way Out of Standoff

The "undeniable" benefits of a dialogue between Iran and the United States should be considered by the country's authorities in a wider context, says a political analyst, who argues that Tehran should help Washington find a face-saving way out to end the confrontation.
"All the pros and cons of a possible meeting between the Iranian and US presidents should be studied, and a decision should be made based on what best serves the country's interests," Reza Nasri also told ISNA. 
Speaking to reporters at a G7 Summit in the French resort of Biarritz on August 26, US President Donald Trump said he would meet his Iranian counterpart, Hassan Rouhani, under the right circumstances to end a confrontation that began after Washington pulled out of Tehran's 2015 nuclear deal with six powers and reimposed sanctions on the OPEC producer, Reuters reported.
French President Emmanuel Macron, host of the G7 Summit, told the same news conference that Rouhani told him he would be open to meeting Trump.
