President Donald Trump says Iran’s leadership has agreed to resume negotiations with the United States following a wave of US-Israeli strikes on multiple cities in the Arab country.
According to The Atlantic, Trump said Tehran had reached out for talks and that he had accepted.
“They want to talk, and I have agreed to talk,” Trump told the newspaper’s reporter Michael Scherer in a telephone interview.
“They should have done it sooner. They should have given what was very practical and easy to do sooner. They waited too long.”
Trump added that several Iranian officials previously involved in negotiations were no longer alive.
