U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said Tuesday there is a strong likelihood that negotiations aimed at ending the Iran conflict will resume soon, citing indications received by the United Nations.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that Iran talks could resume in Pakistan over the next two days, according to an interview with the New York Post.
Asked what the United Nations knew about such prospects, Guterres told reporters at the U.N., "The indication we have is that it is highly probable that these talks will restart."
Guterres said he met on Tuesday with the deputy prime minister of Pakistan, and praised Pakistan's peace efforts.
"I consider it essential that these negotiations go on," Guterres said.
