Tehran is ready to exchange prisoners with the United States, but this does not happen because of Washington's position, Iranian government's spokesperson Ali Rabei noted.
According to him, as far as the exchange of prisoners is concerned, there is nothing new here.
He added that despite the United States' unwillingness to exchange all prisoners, it is likely that there will be an opportunity to release some Iranian hostages from American prisons, RIA Novosti reported.
A government spokesman added that the United States should return to the nuclear deal unconditionally and not complicate the path for diplomacy.
