Iran said on Tuesday that President Hassan Rouhani had exchanged letters with US President Barack Obama, confirming a rare contact between leaders of the two nations at loggerheads over Iran's nuclear program, the Syrian war and other issues.
The United States and Iran cut off formal diplomatic ties in 1980, shortly after students and Islamic militants stormed the US Embassy in Tehran and took American diplomats hostage.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said on Tuesday that Obama had sent Rouhani a message of congratulations on the occasion of his election.
"This letter has been exchanged," Afkham said, according to the ISNA news agency. "The mechanism for exchanging these letters is through current diplomatic channels."

Dear Rouhani;
As soon as I become King, I will be able to do more. Please be patient.

Lord Obama
"Dear Hassan, PLEASE say hi to Valerie Jarrett's family!.."
Did the letter include a photo of Obama in bowing mode?
Dear Honorable and Most High President Hassan Rouhani:
Didja notice that I gave it up for your boy Assad in Syria?

BTW - The tech specs of the latest Bunker Buster I had to send to Israel (you know those Jews, they can really twist arms! “Arms”, get it?) are 50 feet of granite and 8 feet of hardened steel.
So make sure you’re well protected.
Anyhow, say “Hi”! to Puti for me. We really pulled one over on the Americans didn’t we!
Love, kisses and Allahu Akbar,
President (ha! can you believe it?) 0bama
