Diplomatic discussions between the United States and Iran continue, according to President Donald Trump, who spoke early Tuesday. His remarks came shortly after Iran and Israel agreed to suspend attacks against each other, easing tensions that had threatened to destabilize a fragile ceasefire.
Trump emphasized that negotiations with Tehran persisted even during the recent surge in hostilities, suggesting that a formal agreement to end the war could be achieved within "one or two days from now, but I think it's going well."
