President Donald Trump stated that he conducted phone conversations with Iranian officials, according to a Fox News journalist. The reported contacts come amid ongoing tensions over Iran's nuclear program and potential US military action.
President Donald Trump claimed to have conducted phone conversations with Iranian officials, as reported by a Fox News journalist on Tuesday evening. The statement marks a significant development in US-Iran relations, following weeks of escalating rhetoric from both sides.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Tuesday, Trump said he was "close to ordering a strike on Iranian nuclear facilities," and in another appearance stated he believed Iranians "want a deal" but qualified it with "we will see." The new claim of direct talks suggests a diplomatic channel may be active alongside the military posturing.
No further details — such as which Iranian officials were involved, the content of the discussions, or the timing of the calls — have been disclosed. The White House has not officially confirmed the conversations, and the report remains attributed to a single journalistic source.
