US President Donald Trump has said that ongoing talks with Iran are now being conducted by phone.
“We’re having talks with them now, and we’re not flying anymore with 18-hour flights every time we want to see a piece of paper. We’re doing it telephonically,” Trump told reporters on Wednesday at the White House.
Iran and the US held talks in Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad, on April 11, but failed to reach an agreement to end the war that began on February 28.
The negotiations followed a two-week ceasefire brokered by Pakistan on April 8, which was later extended by Trump, who cancelled a planned trip to Islamabad this weekend by special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner.
