Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday highlighted in a phone call the importance of dialogue in addressing differences and resolving misunderstandings regarding the Iranian nuclear negotiations.



According to a statement published by Pezeshkian's office, the Iranian president said his country has always welcomed dialogue and engagement, urging the Western side to "respect Iran's rights" and refrain from seeking to impose what he called "excessive demands."



"It is the turn of the United States and Europe to gain Iran's trust through proving their sincerity," he said.



Pezeshkian also noted that Iran has come under increasing pressure and sanctions based on a "biased" insistence and the "false" pretext that Tehran is attempting to make nuclear weapons.



The French president, for his part, said he would work to create a new negotiation framework aimed at paving the way for a clear agreement between Iran and the Western states.
