WASHINGTON, April 24 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump told Reuters on Friday that Iran plans to make an offer aimed at satisfying U.S. demands, as talks were expected to resume in Pakistan.
“They’re making an offer and we’ll have to see,” Trump said during a phone interview.
Trump said he did not know what the offer would be yet.
When asked who the U.S. was negotiating with, Trump said: “I don’t want to say that, but we’re dealing with the people that are in charge now.”
Trump plans to send special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to talks with Araqchi in Islamabad, and the pair will depart on Saturday morning, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters on Friday.
Reuters reported earlier that Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi was expected in the Pakistani capital Islamabad on Friday to discuss proposals for restarting peace talks with the U.S.
