US President Donald Trump suggests sanctions on Iran can be removed once “they behave”, Reuters reports.

“As far as sanctions are concerned, at some point, you know, we have sanctions which will never let them rebuild. They would have no money, they would be in poverty, the 91 million people would starve, so something will happen as soon as they behave,” he tells reporters at the G7.

“When they behave, we’re going to let that go. We’re going to have to. I put sanctions on a lot of people, and then I let them go.”
