US President Donald Trump on Wednesday pushed back against reports that a peace agreement with Tehran may be getting close. When asked if a fresh round of negotiations with Pakistan was on the horizon, requiring media presence at the site, the American leader replied, “I don’t think so” to the New York Post. “I think we’ll do it – it’s too far,” he added, continuing with no, it’s too much.”
Meanwhile, Pakistani sources told Al-Arabiya that the two sides are closer to embarking on a negotiation process that “may take months.”
Trump’s comments come after he said yesterday that Project Freedom was paused to allow for the deal to be reached. However, the US president warned earlier today that Washington will continue to “bomb” the Middle Eastern country if Iran does not accept the terms of the already “agreed” terms.
