WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump announced Monday that diplomatic discussions between the United States and Iran have produced significant common ground between the two nations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump revealed that negotiations held on Sunday were set to resume Monday, expressing optimism that a diplomatic agreement could be reached quickly if discussions remain productive.
The president disclosed that Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner conducted the diplomatic discussions with Iranian representatives.
Trump also revealed he had issued orders to delay planned military strikes targeting Iranian power facilities for a five-day period, just hours before a deadline that could have intensified the ongoing conflict, which has now entered its fourth week.
