WASHINGTON, May 29 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he has warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu against any action that could jeopardize ongoing talks between the Trump administration and Iran on a new nuclear deal, media reported.
“Well, I’d like to be honest. Yes, I did,” Trump said when asked if he warned Netanyahu against striking Iran to avoid disrupting the talks, The Hill reports.
“I said I don’t think it’s appropriate. We’re having very good discussions with them, and I don’t think it’s appropriate right now,” the US president added.
D. Trump also told reporters that the situation “could change at any moment — could change with a phone call,” CNN reports.
“I think they want to make a deal. And if we can make a deal, I will save a lot of lives,” the message said.
The fifth round of proximity talks between Iran and the United States ended last week in Rome with “some but not final progress,” said Omani Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad bin Hamoud al-Busaidi, who is mediating the talks. –0–
