WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Monday that the U.S. and Iran are participating in direct talks over the Middle Eastern country's nuclear program.
"We're having direct talks with Iran, and they've started. It'll go on Saturday. We have a very big meeting, and we'll see what can happen. And I think everybody agrees that doing a deal would be preferable," Trump told reporters.
