US President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House on Friday that Iran wants to talk and keeps talking, and that Tehran is struggling to meet its financial obligations to security personnel: “There are talks.

They want to talk. They keep talking. They’re not paying their soldiers. They’re not paying their police. They’re in a lot of trouble.” Earlier Friday, Trump told Kansas City radio station KCMO that the military confrontation with Iran was approaching its conclusion, though he did not provide a timetable or explain how an agreement might be reached, Israel National News reported.
