US-Iran talks going ‘very well’ says Trump, Rubio says ‘war with Iran is over’ – but does Iran agree?
WASHINGTON/DUBAI: US President Donald Trump said Wednesday that talks with Iran are going “very well” and could yield results over the coming weekend.
“I hear the negotiation itself is going very well actually,” Trump told reporters, adding of a potential deal: “It could happen... over the weekend.”
And US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Wednesday stood by his claim that the war with Iran was over, even as deadly strikes continued.
“We’re no longer conducting sustained strikes inside of Iran to degrade their military, because Epic Fury is over," Rubio told the House Foreign Affairs Committee, asserting that the United States had secured victory.
