Trump suggests potential for dialogue with Iran amid indications of readiness

Title: Iran Signals Willingness to Negotiate Amid Escalating Tensions with Israel

Hey there! The standoff between Iran and Israel is heating up, but there seems to be a glimmer of hope. US President Trump hints at a readiness to talk in Tehran.

In the heart of Canada at the G7 summit, Trump shared that Iran has shown a willingness to communicate—a sentiment that could potentially lead to de-escalation. Iran, Trump says, wishes to discuss terms, albeit belatedly. "They should have talked sooner," he asserted. "Both sides need to strike a deal, and it's going to be painful, but it's necessary." Trump stresses further that Iran isn't winning this war and should negotiate before it's too late.

However, Trump evaded scrutiny on what could prompt the US to militarily intervene in the conflict. "I don't want to discuss that," he responded.

Will the Iran Nuclear Talks Resume Soon?

Recent days have seen Israel launching attacks on Iranian targets, including nuclear sites, military officials, scientists, and more. The purpose, as stated, is to hinder Iran's secretive nuclear weapon development. To which, Iran responded with counterattacks on Israel.

Previously, the Trump administration attempted to control the Iranian nuclear program through negotiations. Conducted under the mediation of Oman, direct talks between Washington and Tehran were held. A subsequent round of talks was initially scheduled but later canceled due to the military ruckus between Israel and Iran.

However, a report by the "Wall Street Journal" suggests that Iran is now willing to revisit the negotiating table. Tehran is said to have communicated its eagerness to end the hostilities and restart negotiations, as long as the U.S. does not participate in the assaults. Moreover, Iran is rumored to have appealed to the Israeli government to limit the scope of the violence.
