US President Donald Trump says that a deal is maybe close on Iran’s nuclear program, voicing optimism at avoiding a military strike on Tehran’s sites.
“We’re not going to be making any nuclear dust in Iran,” Trump says after a meeting in Doha with business leaders. “I think we’re getting close to maybe doing a deal without having to do this.”
“So we’ll see what happens but we’re in very serious negotiations with Iran for long-term peace,” he says.
“Iran has sort of agreed to the terms,” he says. “We’re getting close to maybe doing a deal.”
