U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday the United States and Iran will "probably, maybe" resume in-person talks over the weekend as efforts continue to reach a deal on ending the conflict.
"It's looking very good that we're going to make a deal with Iran and it's going to be a good deal, it's going to be a deal with no nuclear weapons," Trump told reporters at the White House. "We have a lot of agreement with Iran."
"Iran wants to make a deal and we're dealing very nicely with them. We've got to have no nuclear weapon ... that's a big factor," Trump claimed. "And they're willing to do things today that they weren't willing to do two months ago."
Meanwhile, Trump dismissed the reportedly U.S. 20-year timeline to suspend Iran's uranium enrichment, reports Xinhua.
"We have a statement, very powerful statement, that they will not have, beyond 20 years, that they will not have nuclear weapons," Trump said, "There's no 20-year limit."
He also claimed that Tehran has "agreed to give us back the nuclear dust that's way underground because of the attack we made with the B2 bombers," referring to Iran's enriched uranium.
On Wednesday, Trump said that the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran is "very close to being over."
