Trump says he would love to remove Iran sanctions at the right time

WASHINGTON, July 7 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said he would love to remove tough U.S. sanctions on Iran at the right time.

Trump, speaking to reporters at the start of a dinner with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said a recent move to remove U.S. sanctions on Syria would help that country move forward, and he hoped a similar move could happen for Iran.

"I would love to be able to, at the right time, take those sanctions off, give them a chance at rebuilding, because I'd like to see Iran build itself back up in a peaceful manner, and not going around saying, 'death to America,' 'death to the USA,' 'death to Israel,' as they were doing," he said.
