The president’s optimistic statement comes after public disagreements between U.S. and Iranian officials over whether Iran should be allowed to enrich any uranium under a deal, leading some commentators to say that talks are breaking down. Trump’s comments suggest that the White House is not worried about these tensions.
The president added that he might make an important announcement in the coming days and that the U.S. and Iran could avoid a military confrontation. “I have a feeling I might be telling you something good. We've had some real progress, serious progress."
