Trump Invites Iran for Peace Talks via Secure Phone Lines

President Donald Trump has expressed openness to negotiations with Iran, inviting them to initiate discussions to resolve the ongoing conflict. In a Fox News interview, he emphasized the availability of secure communication lines. Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi continues diplomatic efforts in Pakistan amidst a hiatus in direct U.S.-Iran talks.

On Sunday, President Donald Trump expressed a readiness to enter negotiations with Iran, suggesting they reach out via secure communication lines if they wish to discuss peace.

During an interview on Fox News' "The Sunday Briefing," Trump stated that Iran simply needs to make the call to initiate talks. His remarks followed the cancellation of a visit by U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Pakistan, signaling another setback in the peace process.

As U.S. interlocutors are absent, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi has proceeded with diplomatic engagements in Pakistan, engaging solely with local officials before making a return trip.
