US President Donald Trump said that talks with Iran are continuing and that he believes the conflict will end soon.
Modern.az reports that Trump said Tehran is negotiating with Washington “very politely.”
The US president emphasized that Iran not possessing nuclear weapons is not a subject of discussion:
“Iran will never have nuclear weapons. They understand and accept this, but they do not admit that they accept it.”
Trump stated that the US is fully prepared for military operations, but does not think there will be a need for the use of weapons.
“Military operations do not seem so necessary, but we are fully prepared. We see progress towards the end of this conflict. I think it will end quite soon. Militarily, everything is practically over,” he noted.
Trump said that the current situation is mainly maintained at the request of Iran's neighboring countries. He also stated that the US has not lost a single soldier in the last six months.
Touching on the situation in Venezuela, the US president claimed that they have full control over the processes.
