The president Donald Trump said that the US and the Iran They participate in direct talks on the country’s nuclear program.
As Donald Trump pointed out, “we have direct talks with Iran, which began. They will continue on Saturday, there will be a great meeting and see what can be done.
And I think everyone agrees that it would be better to reach an agreement. “
Trump’s statements were made to the White House during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
On Saturday we will have a “very high level” meeting with Iran, an agreement can be reached, he added.
Iran had previously rejected Trump’s offer for direct negotiations on his nuclear program, offering instead to participate in indirect talks. Trump’s offer, which he sent to the Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Hameni in March, proposed negotiations on a new nuclear deal, with a two -month ultimatum to reach an agreement.
Trump expressed his optimism that talks would succeed in persuading Iran to abandon his nuclear program, which Tehran insists on being peaceful.
“I hope these conversations will be successful. And I think it will be in the interest of Iran if they are successful. … We hope this will happen,” he said.
