Trump sends hint US-Iran negotiations could be close to a deal

Iran Program Senior Director Behnam Ben Taleblu says there are signs the US-Iran negotiations could be close to a deal.

“You’re seeing at least messages about the closeness of this deal, both from the Iranians and Americans,” Mr Ben Taleblu told Sky News Australia.

“You couldn’t have a better example of it than the United States of America – the Commander-in-Chief, Donald Trump – retweeting or reposting a tweet from the Foreign Minister of the world’s foremost state sponsor of terrorism.

“That doesn’t happen often, and when it does, it could be a sign.”
