Trump: Iran "really" wants to reach an agreement
Continuation of talks from early next week

The President of the United States described the talks with the Islamic Republic as good and reiterated that a large American fleet will soon be around Iran. He added that the discussions will continue early next week.

Donald Trump, speaking to reporters on Air Force One, said, "It seems that [the Islamic Republic] Iran really wants to reach an agreement badly. We’ll have to see what that agreement is. But I think Iran really wants to reach an agreement, and of course, they have to want it too."

The President of the United States referred to the negotiations before the U.S. attack on the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities, stating that the Islamic Republic decided last time that perhaps they wouldn’t agree, "but I think now their opinion has probably changed. We will see what the agreement will be. It will be different from last time. And we have a large fleet, a big naval formation that is moving in that direction. We will be there soon. So we will see how it turns out."

A reporter, referring to the presence of Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, as well as Brad Cooper, the head of U.S. Central Command, in the negotiations with the Islamic Republic in Oman, asked Donald Trump: "It doesn’t seem like an agreement has been reached yet. How long are you willing to wait?"

To which Mr. Trump replied: "You have to maintain your position. We have plenty of time. If you remember Venezuela, we waited for a while. We are in no rush."

He said, "We have very good talks with Iran. We also have very good talks with Russia and Ukraine. We are having a lot of discussions."

Referring to "the results we had today with Iran," he said, "We are supposed to meet again early next week. They want to reach an agreement. Iran, as it should, wants to reach an agreement. They know the consequences of not reaching an agreement. If they don’t reach an agreement, the consequences will be very heavy. So we will see what happens."

The President of the United States said, "We will see how everything goes." He mentioned that he negotiated with a "high-ranking representative" of the Islamic Republic. Earlier, media had reported that Abbas Araghchi was representing the Islamic Republic in the Oman negotiations.

The President made these remarks while the White House announced hours after the Oman talks that Donald Trump signed an executive order imposing tariffs on the Islamic Republic's trade partners "to counter the Iranian regime."

The U.S. also sanctioned 17 vessels of the "shadow fleet" and 15 entities related to the illegal sale of Iranian oil on Friday, February 6.
