Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says that the nuclear deal between his country and the P5+1 could serve as a model for solving regional issues.

During a live news conference on an official television station, President Rouhani blamed Saudi Arabia for the rising tensions between Riyadh and Tehran and demanded that Saudi Arabia change its conduct.

Rouhani also claimed that the Islamic Republic's economy will grow by five percent over the next year, though he admitted that the economic relationship between his country and the US will not be completely restored, despite the lifting of sanctions.
