Iran would hand over its highly-enriched uranium to be shipped to the US in a potential deal, says US President Donald Trump.
“It goes to the United States,” says Trump in an interview with PBS. He adds that Iran would agree not to use its underground nuclear facilities.
There is a “very good chance of making a deal,” he says. “If we don’t, we’ll go back to our old ways.”
Trump says that it is “unlikely” that he will send his top envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, to Pakistan for talks. “I think we can do it here, and maybe for the final meeting, we’ll have a signing someplace.”
“If they agree, it’s over, and if they don’t agree, we bomb,” he says, reiterating a threat he has made many times in recent weeks.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
