U.S. President Donald Trump outlined his latest stance on the Iran file, emphasizing that potential negotiations were on the verge of starting just a few days ago, with continued efforts to reach a swift resolution to the crisis.
Trump said in various statements:
"We were close a few days ago to reaching an agreement for direct negotiations with Iran"
He added:
"The conflict with Iran should end in days, not weeks"
Trump stressed that the opportunity for an agreement still exists, while warning of possible consequences if talks fail:
"There is a great opportunity to reach an agreement with Iran, but if it doesn’t happen, I will blow everything up"
He also addressed the stance of Iranian civilians regarding potential strikes:
"Iranian civilians opposing their government will support hitting energy and electricity facilities"
He continued:
"The opposing civilians in Iran fear we might withdraw in the middle of the war, but we will not"
Trump further highlighted ongoing diplomatic efforts:
"Witkoff and Kushner are conducting intensive negotiations with the Iranians"
Despite partial optimism, he acknowledged the challenges of the talks:
"The negotiations are going well, but you can never reach the finish line with the Iranians"
These remarks come amid rising tensions between the United States and Iran, as the international community closely monitors any developments that could impact regional and global stability.
