President Donald Trump expressed optimism Tuesday about the possibility of reaching a deal with Iran, as negotiations between the two countries continue. Speaking at a White House press conference, Trump said he believes an agreement is possible, though he did not provide details on the terms or timeline.
What Trump said
Trump told reporters that the talks are progressing and that he is hopeful. He did not specify which issues are being discussed or whether any breakthroughs have occurred. The president's comments come after months of indirect and direct discussions between US and Iranian officials.
Ongoing negotiations
The negotiations, which have been held in various locations, aim to address longstanding disputes. Neither side has released a detailed public statement about the content of the talks. The US has maintained that it seeks a comprehensive agreement, while Iran has demanded the lifting of sanctions.
What comes next
It is unclear when the next round of talks will take place. The White House did not announce any specific deadlines. Trump's optimistic tone suggests the administration may be preparing to announce progress, but no formal agreement has been reached.
