But in New York City, Mottaki seemed to encourage rapprochement, urging more "people to people" exchanges between the U.S. and Iran and saying "proposals for direct flights as well as an interest section can be examined by both sides." On the other hand, he dampened expectations that a long-delayed fourth round of direct talks on Iraq's security between the U.S. and Iran in Baghdad will be held anytime soon.
