US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz says President Donald Trump “has every intent” to sign an memorandum of understanding with Iran today.

“The president has every intent for it to happen. I’ll leave the actual details and timing to the White House. The Iranians are incredibly difficult negotiators, coupled with the fact that they’re having a very hard time getting guidance from their supreme leader, and they’re not always on the same page within their team,” Waltz tells ABS’s “This Week.”

“They have every intent of getting this done today,” he adds.
