"There was nothing definitive reached other than I insisted that negotiations with Iran continue to see whether or not a Deal can be consummated. If it can, I let the Prime Minister know that will be a preference. If it cannot, we will just have to see what the outcome will be,"
"Trump noted that before the Twelve Day War last June, Iran decided not to cut a deal with the U.S. 'That did not work well for them. Hopefully this time they will be more reasonable and responsible,' Trump wrote. The other side: Netanyahu's office said in a statement that he had 'emphasized the security needs of the State of Israel in the context of the negotiations with Iran, and the two agreed to continue close coordination and communication between them.'"
U.S. and Iran resumed negotiations in Oman for the first time since June while the U.S. simultaneously increased military forces in the Gulf. The president expects a second round of talks next week but said he might send a second aircraft carrier strike group to the Gulf if talks fail. The president stated a negotiated deal would be preferred but left military options on the table. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu emphasized Israel's security needs and agreed to ongoing coordination with the U.S. Both leaders also discussed Gaza and regional developments, with the president noting progress in Gaza and the region.
