US President Donald Trump said during a press conference Monday that Iran is an “active, willing participant” in negotiations to potentially end the war, APA reports citing CNN.
“I can’t talk about ceasefire, but I can tell you that we have an active, willing participant on the other side. They would like to be able to make a deal. I can’t say any more than that,” the president said.
Trump also told reporters that talks with intermediaries to end the conflict are “going well.”
“Essentially they have till 8 p.m. tomorrow night, eastern time, but we are dealing with them. I think it’s going well. Mr. Witkoff is here and JD is involved in the dealing. Mr. Witkoff is sitting right here and I think it’s going fine, but we’ll have to see,” he said.
