U.S. President Donald Trump is eager to negotiate a deal with Iran to quell ongoing hostilities in the Middle East, according to three senior Israeli officials. However, they express doubts about Iran's willingness to comply with U.S. demands in any future negotiations.
The breakdown of talks on February 28, which coincided with the launch of a U.S.-Israeli offensive on Iran, have left prospects uncertain. Secretary demands involve significant limitations on Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
Despite this, Trump claimed 'very good and productive' discussions had taken place, a notion Iran denied. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu notes Trump's intent to leverage military accomplishments into a strategic peace agreement.
