Trump Makes Frantic Excuse After Iran's Humiliating Reveal
Donald Trump has claimed Iran is negotiating with the U.S. to end the current war but is “afraid” to admit it. Trump, 79, made his remarks at Wednesday evening’s Nation Republican Congressional Committee’s annual fundraising dinner.
“They are negotiating by the way,” Trump claimed of Iran. “They want to make a deal so badly but they are afraid to say it. Because they figure they will be killed by their own people. They are also afraid they will be killed by us.”
His comments directly conflict Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi who said the country is not currently in negotiations with the U.S. over a resolution to the war and has “no intention” to have the conversations.
Speaking on Iran’s state TV news channel, he said the U.S. had been “sending various messages through different intermediaries” for several days. Araghchi clarified that the messages were “conveyed via friendly countries” and said the fact Iran was responding by stating their “positions and issuing warnings” is “neither dialogue nor negotiation, nor anything of the sort.”
