Trump says US and Iranian officials will talk next week as ceasefire holds DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Israel and Iran seemed to honor the fragile ceasefire between them for a second day, and U.S. President Donald Trump asserted that American and Iranian officials will talk next week, giving rise to cautious hope for longer-term peace. Trump helped negotiate the ceasefire that took hold Tuesday on the 12th day of the war. He told reporters Wednesday at a NATO summit that he was not particularly interested in restarting negotiations with Iran and insisted that U.S. strikes had destroyed its nuclear program.
