Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said in an interview aired on U.S. television Monday that if the United States adopted a genuinely new approach to his country, Tehran would respond in a positive way.
"Today, we see new behavior shown by the United States and the officials of the United States. My question is, is such behavior rooted in a new approach?" the president told NBC in an interview.
If so, "we will be facing a new situation and the response by the Iranian people will be a positive one," he said, speaking from Tehran.
