WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump said it is “too soon” to start thinking about face-to-face peace talks between the US and Iran, the New York Post reported on Wednesday.
Responding to questions about whether The Post should send a reporter back to Pakistan for a new round of negotiations, the president said, “I don’t think so.”
“I think we’ll do it— it’s too far. No, it’s too much,” he added.
Moments earlier, Trump had posted on Truth Social that the war could end if Iran agrees to a deal.
“Assuming Iran agrees to give what has been agreed to, which is, perhaps, a big assumption, the already legendary [Operation] Epic Fury will be at an end, and the highly effective blockade will allow the Hormuz Strait to be open to all, including Iran,” Trump said.
He also warns that if Iran does not agree, “the bombing starts, and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before.”
