US President Donald Trump says he would accept a 20-year suspension of Iran’s nuclear program.
Asked by a reporter on Air Force One whether a 20-year suspension would be sufficient, Trump responds, “20 years is enough. But the level of guarantee from them… it’s got to be a real 20 years.”
In the past, Trump has demanded that Iran agree to forever cease enrichment, claiming that he didn’t want to pass the problem off to a future president.
