Trump says US and Iran getting close to nuclear deal during constructive talks

The recent nuclear talks between the United States and Iran have been described as constructive by the State Department. President Donald Trump has been vocal about his desire to see diplomacy prevail in resolving the issues between the two countries.

During a press briefing, U.S. State Department deputy spokesperson Tommy Pigott confirmed that the U.S. and Iran are close to reaching a nuclear deal. President Trump, speaking in Doha, Qatar, expressed optimism about the progress of the negotiations, stating that the two countries are “getting close” to a deal without resorting to violence.

In his typical fashion, President Trump outlined two possible outcomes – a peaceful resolution or a violent one, emphasizing that the latter involves unprecedented levels of violence. He also mentioned that the U.S. and Iran have “sort of” agreed to the terms of a nuclear deal.

Pigott refrained from disclosing details of private diplomatic conversations but reiterated President Trump’s stance on Iran’s nuclear ambitions. He emphasized that Iran must never possess a nuclear weapon and that the ongoing talks have been described as constructive by all parties involved.

President Trump’s remarks came during his visit to the Middle East, where he made stops in Saudi Arabia and Qatar. He reiterated his commitment to reaching a deal with Iran and expanding the Abraham Accords to include more countries in the region.

While expressing his willingness to engage in diplomacy with Iran, President Trump also criticized the Iranian regime for its support of terrorism and proxy wars. He highlighted the negative impact of Iran’s actions on the region, citing examples such as the support for Hezbollah in Lebanon and the propping up of the Assad regime in Syria.

Despite his critical comments, President Trump expressed a desire to see Iran prosper but emphasized the need for Tehran to cease its support for terrorism and halt its pursuit of nuclear weapons. The impact of these remarks on the ongoing nuclear negotiations remains uncertain.

In a positive development, a top advisor to Iran’s supreme leader indicated Tehran’s readiness to eliminate its highly enriched uranium stockpiles and adhere to restrictions on uranium enrichment in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions.

As negotiations continue, it is essential to maintain a balanced approach to address the complex issues between the U.S. and Iran. The goal remains to achieve a peaceful resolution through diplomatic means while ensuring the security and stability of the region.
