Trump details US-Iran talks, says Iran agreed to not have nuclear weapon
President Donald Trump talked about the ongoing negotiations with Iran during a lengthy gaggle on the tarmac in Palm Beach, Florida, on Monday.
Trump said that Iran and the U.S. had many points of agreement in the current talks, which he previously said had been happening for two days - and he said that Iran agreed to never have a nuclear weapon.
President Donald Trump speaks with the media before boarding Air Force One, Monday, March 23, 2026, at Palm Beach International Airport in West Palm Beach, Fla.
Trump said talks would continue over the next few days. He said Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff and his son-in-law Jared Kushner have been involved in those talks.
"We have had very, very strong talks. We'll see where they lead. But we have point -- major points of agreement, I would say, almost all points of agreement, perhaps that hasn't been conveyed," Trump said. "The communication, as you know, has been blown to pieces. They're unable to talk to each other. But we've had very strong talks. Mr. Witkoff and Mr. Kushner had them. They went, I would say, perfectly. I would say that if they carry through with that, it'll end that -- that problem, that conflict, and I think it'll end it very, very substantially."
When pressed about who they are speaking with in Iran, Trump said, "a top person."
"Don't forget, we've wiped out the leadership phase one, phase two and largely phase three. But we're dealing with a man who I believe is the most respected and the leader," Trump said.
Trump said he is not talking to the new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei.
