US President Barack Obama is not ruling out the possible reopening of US embassy in Tehran.
According to CBS News, in an interview taped last week, Obama, on being asked about the possibility of the US embassy reopening in Tehran, said that "these things have to go in steps."
Earlier, Obama had said that the United States could diplomatically resolve its nuclear dispute with Iran in the next six months.
Obama also made a personal appeal to leading US senators to postpone new sanctions on Iran terming this effort as "a test worth conducting", Dawn News reported.
He said that his aides had already discussed the plan with the Israelis, the Iranians, the US Congress and leaders of the international community.
Obama, however, clarified that the US would maintain the essential sanctions, and as president, he would retain all options to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons.
