Trump says U.S. will have 'direct' talks with Iran over nuclear program
Briefly

President Trump announced that the U.S. and Iran have commenced direct talks regarding Iran's nuclear program, a statement that directly contradicts Iranian officials' rejections of such negotiations. Trump extended an invitation for direct talks in a letter to Iran's leadership, coupled with a warning of potential military action. Iranian officials, however, insist on pursuing indirect negotiations through mediators, highlighting their distrust of U.S. intentions. They emphasized the need for proof of sincerity from the U.S. before engaging in talks, showcasing the complexities of diplomatic relations between the two nations.
We're having direct talks with Iran, and they've started. It'll go on Saturday. We have a very big meeting, and we'll see what can happen.
However, we remain committed to diplomacy and are ready to try the path of indirect negotiations.
