Trump hints at 'good news' on Iran

President Trump on Sunday said his administration had “some very good talks with Iran” and suggested that positive news could be coming from the negotiations.

“Let’s see what happens, but I think we can have some good news on the Iran front,” Trump told reporters from the tarmac in Morristown, N.J., ahead of his departure for Washington, D.C.

Delegations from the U.S. and Iran wrapped up a fifth round of talks on a potential new nuclear agreement in Rome on Friday. Trump during his first term withdrew the U.S. from a nuclear deal the Obama administration had negotiated but has since launched new efforts meant to curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions and prevent a war.  

Iranian officials, according to a report by NBC, also described the most recent talks as positive.

“We have just completed one of the most professional rounds of talks. … We firmly stated Iran‘s position. … The fact that we are now on a reasonable path, in my view, is itself a sign of progress,” Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told state TV, according to NBC.

“The proposals and solutions will be reviewed in respective capitals … and the next round of talks will be scheduled accordingly.”

Trump on Sunday also said there had been good talks with Hamas on Gaza, and that he continued to hold talks with Israel.

On Iran, he said he did not know if he would be “telling anything good or bad, but I have a feeling we’ll be telling you something good.”

Trump covered several topics while talking to reporters, including his frustration with Russia President Vladimir Putin and his willingness to accept changes to his “big, beautiful” tax cuts bill as it moves to the Senate.

While two Senate GOP conservatives raised doubts about the bill on Sunday, Trump expressed confidence.

“I think the Senate is going to get there,” he said, even if there are some changes both minor and significant to the bill.

“The Speaker has been working with the leader of the Senate,” he said of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.). He said the two had done a great job and “hopefully that’ll be fine.”
