2nd Round of Iran Peace Talks Could Come This Weekend, Trump Says
By Ryan Morgan
A second round of peace talks between the United States and Iran could take place this weekend, President Donald Trump told reporters on April 16.
“It’s looking very good that we’re going to make a deal with Iran, and it’s going to be a good deal. It’s going to be a deal with no nuclear weapons,” Trump said before departing the White House.
A first round of talks in the Pakistani capital of Islamabad ended on April 11 without an agreement between Washington and Tehran. The next round of negotiations could come just days before the expiration of a two-week ceasefire with Iran.
Trump indicated fighting with Iran could resume if there’s no deal by the end of the two-week truce, which began on April 7.
“If there’s no deal, fighting resumes,” Trump told reporters.
The president also said he’d be willing to extend the ceasefire if a peace agreement appears within reach.
