US Iran Negotiations Ongoing as Trump Confirms Direct Talks
The United States is currently negotiating with Iran, according to President Donald Trump, who confirmed the development on Tuesday during remarks at the White House.
Speaking briefly to reporters, Trump said the talks are happening now but did not share details about the scope, timeline, or objectives of the discussions.
The statement follows a military incident in the Arabian Sea, where a US fighter jet shot down an Iranian drone after it reportedly approached the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier. The event heightened tensions between the two countries and renewed attention on regional security concerns.
Trump referenced a previous military operation, saying Iran had earlier opportunities to act differently but failed to do so. He added that the consequences of that decision were clear and suggested Tehran may be seeking talks to avoid further escalation.
According to the president, Iran does not want a repeat of past military actions and is now open to negotiations with Washington.
The comments reflect a potential shift in US Iran relations amid ongoing instability in the Middle East. They also come at a time when global observers are closely monitoring diplomatic efforts aimed at reducing conflict in the region.
The remarks were made during a media briefing at the White House on Tuesday.
