They have the same definition because they are synonyms. They are used differently in some cases. In spoken English we usually say "Let me reiterate: I will NOT do that." We don't usually say "Let me iterate." When we're talking about something that repeats though, we talk about the next iteration, not the next reiteration.
The term "reiterate" is actually meaningless. It literally means "to again repeat", or "to repeat again". You would therefore have to iterate something before you could reiterate it. But since every repetition is itself an iteration, the prefix "re" is wholly redundant. "Let me iterate..." is therefore the correct usage.

Repeat, reiterate, ingeminate, iterate, retell.
Let me iterate and reiterate, "We will never send your boys to fight on foreign soil". (paraphrased from FDR)
Unless you are referring to it for the THIRD time, use "repeat." Iterate already means "repeat" and so re-iterate means repeat again.
To reiterate means to say or do something again, typically for emphasis or clarity. It involves repeating a point or statement that has already been made.

To reiterate means to state something again in terms more easily understandable. For example if someone is speaking in a bunch of technical jargon that only an expert in the field would understand, a person would reiterate something in layman's terms so the the listener would better understand it. It an also be used as a means to further enforce a point. An insructor could reiterate a point to imply its importance.
The word that uses the prefix "re" and means to repeat in the same words is "reiterate."
Reiterate was created in 2007.
The Swedish word for reiterate is "upprepa"
To reiterate something means to repeat or emphasize it again in order to make sure it is clear or understood. One way to reiterate is to summarize the main points of what was previously said or written. Another way is to use different words or examples to convey the same message.
Those two words have almost exactly the same meaning, but reiterate conveys a more formal mood than repeat. It is a somewhat more serious form of repetition.
To reiterate something is to repeat it once or many times for clarity or emphasis. An example of a sentence using the word "reiterate" would be: He told them again to stay away from the bluffs; he felt he needed to reiterate the warning.
