Trump Expects Iran Deal ‘In a Day or Two’
Trump said most major points are finalized as talks focus on Iran’s nuclear program and a 450-kilogram uranium stockpile, Axios reported.
- President Donald Trump expects the United States and Iran to reach a peace deal "in the next day or two," citing rising hopes following a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon this week.
- Trump claimed Thursday that Iran agreed to forgo nuclear weapons and surrender its enriched stockpile, pledging to turn over what he termed "nuclear dust" as part of negotiations.
- About 450 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60 percent purity lies buried in Iranian sites bombed by the United States last year, remaining well below the 90 percent threshold needed for a weapon.
- "Most of the main points are finalized. It'll go pretty quickly," Trump said, with negotiators expecting the next round of talks to occur in Islamabad where initial discussions took place.
- When asked if he would travel to Pakistan to sign the agreement, Trump indicated he might do so; the administration has not yet decided who will lead the U.S. delegation.
