Trump: Lift sanctions against Iran at the right time

US President Trump said on the 7th that the US government has arranged to resume negotiations with Iran and hopes to lift US sanctions on Iran at the right time.

On the same day, Trump hosted visiting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu for dinner at the White House. During the dinner, Trump told reporters that the US has arranged to hold negotiations with Iran. He said that Iran has “suffered a heavy blow” and also wants to negotiate.

He also said: “I hope to be able to lift sanctions (on Iran) at the right time and give them a chance to rebuild.”

According to the Associated Press, Iran has not yet confirmed whether it agrees to restart negotiations with the United States.

According to an article published by the Iranian Presidential Palace on the 7th, Iranian President Pezehiziyan said in an interview with American media person Tucker Carlson that on the nuclear issue, Iran does not oppose international inspections and Iran-US negotiations, but needs to rebuild trust in the negotiation process.

Since April this year, the United States and Iran have held five rounds of indirect negotiations on the Iranian nuclear issue, with the mediator passing messages in the middle. The sixth round of negotiations was originally scheduled to be held in Oman on June 15, but was canceled due to Israel’s large-scale air strikes on Iran on June 13. During the Israeli-Iranian military conflict, the United States launched air strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities. On June 24, Israel and Iran ceasefire.
