President Donald Trump has set a two-week negotiating window to decide on whether or not to strike Iran. Several European foreign ministers are convening today with their Iranian counterpart in Geneva for a meeting that is being coordinated with Washington.
Trump and his advisers hope that Iran, under constant Israeli attack, will agree to terms it had previously rejected, including abandoning its enrichment of uranium, according to US officials, CNN reported.
Foreign ministers from Britain, Germany and France are traveling to Geneva today to hold talks with Iranian representatives, and have been briefed on the details of the last deal Witkoff offered to Iran, which Tehran ultimately rejected before the Israeli strikes began. Among US officials, there aren’t high hopes for today’s meeting, but they’re keeping the doors open to progress, CNN reported.
Trump had previously promised to avoid foreign conflict, so the two-week negotiating period will give him more time to weigh out the consequences.
