⚡️ Trump says second round of Iran talks could be this weekend, war 'should' end soon

Speaking to reporters outside the White House, Trump expressed his hope that a temporary extension of the two-week truce set to expire on April 21 won’t be necessary and that the sides would reach a deal for a permanent ceasefire.

Trump insisted his red line is that Iran cannot be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon. He then claimed that Tehran has already agreed to this demand and to give up its stockpile of highly-enriched uranium — which the Islamic Republic has not shown any indication that it is prepared to do.

🔜 Axios also says US would release $20 billion in frozen Iranian funds in return for Iran giving up its stockpile of enriched uranium.
