“We’re having a big day. We’ll see how it all turns out, but it should be good. We’ve had some very good discussions,” the President told reporters in Arizona.
“A lot of good things are happening, and that includes Lebanon, too.”
Trump was asked whether “significant differences” remain between the US and Iran.
“Well, there could be. Let’s see what happens. If there are, we’ll have to straighten it out. But I don’t think there’s too many significant differences,” he replied.
Later, aboard Air Force One, President Trump said there had been “pretty good news,” but he gave no further details.
“We had some pretty good news 20 minutes ago, but it seems to be going very well in the Middle East with Iran. You’ll hear about [it]. I just think it’s something that should happen. It’s something that only makes sense to happen, and I think it will. We’ll see what happens.”
The two-week ceasefire will end next week.
Military operations against Iran could continue if no deal is reached. President Trump has said he may not extend the ceasefire.
The Strait of Hormuz is now open to all commercial vessels, Iranian officials confirmed, as a ten-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon takes effect.
Although the Strait is now open, President Trump has said the US naval blockade of Iran’s ports on the Strait will continue until an agreement with Iran is reached.
