Trump claims that the US and Iran will hold talks next week, and the Middle East war will "end."

Gate News bot message, according to Bloomberg, U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the U.S. will hold talks with Iran next week but expressed doubts about the necessity of reaching a diplomatic agreement after the U.S. bombed three major nuclear facilities in Iran.

"We will negotiate with Iran next week, and we may sign a protocol. I don't know, for me, I think it's unnecessary," Trump said at a news conference during the NATO summit in The Hague on Wednesday.

President Trump did not reveal at what level the talks would be held.

Trump reiterated that the U.S. bombing of the Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow nuclear facilities "destroyed" these sites, and he again dismissed the U.S. intelligence assessment that claimed these strikes would only delay Tehran's nuclear program by a few months. He also stated that these bombings actually meant the conflict was "over."

"I have dealt with both of them, and they are both exhausted, worn out. They fought very, very fiercely, very intensely, very violently, but they both went home satisfied and left. Can all of this start again? I think it will someday. Maybe it will start soon," he said.

In recent months, the United States and Iran have held five rounds of talks seeking to resolve concerns over Iran's nuclear program through diplomatic means—essentially an alternative to the 2015 nuclear protocol abandoned by Trump during his first term. Although a sixth round of talks was scheduled before the Israeli attack on June 13, no agreement was ultimately reached.
