President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. will engage in direct talks with Iran regarding its nuclear program. Trump warned that Iran would be in “great danger” if they do not abandon their nuclear weapons program. The talks are set to begin on Saturday, and Trump emphasized that making a deal would be preferable to resorting to military action. Iran’s mission at the United Nations did not immediately respond to Trump’s comments.
Trump recently sent a letter to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, urging negotiations. While Iran initially rejected direct negotiations with the U.S., they left open the possibility of indirect talks. Trump has consistently called on Iran to abandon its nuclear program or face consequences, including potential bombing.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed support for Trump’s diplomatic efforts and emphasized the importance of preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Trump and Netanyahu discussed various topics during their meeting, including Iran’s nuclear program, tariffs, and tensions with Hamas.
Trump and Netanyahu both expressed a desire to eliminate the trade deficit between the U.S. and Israel. Netanyahu assured Trump that his government would work to achieve this goal quickly. Additionally, Trump discussed leveraging tariffs to potentially force concessions from Israel on issues such as the Gaza conflict. Israel recently removed tariffs on U.S. goods, but the country was still affected by tariffs imposed by Trump on various countries. These tariffs could potentially impact Israeli exports and lead to job losses in industries such as biotechnology and electronics.
