Trump says US officials held positive meeting with Iranian delegation at UN

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that U.S. officials conducted a “very good” meeting with the Iranian delegation at the United Nations, describing the encounter as constructive and forward‑moving. The briefing, delivered at the White House, noted that senior U.S. diplomats and senior Iranian representatives convened in a private session at the UN headquarters in New York, marking the first direct dialogue between the two sides in several months.

The meeting, according to officials, focused on a range of issues including the status of the 2015 nuclear agreement, regional security concerns, and the possibility of easing certain sanctions in exchange for compliance measures. While no formal agreements were announced, the administration said the discussion laid groundwork for future negotiations and signaled a willingness on both sides to re‑engage diplomatically. The White House indicated that further talks are expected in the coming weeks as both governments assess the outcomes of the session.
