As the US and Iran restart negotiations, Trump says the Iranian conflict is "close to an end".

On the 14th, President Trump told American media in an interview that the conflict with Iran is "close to ending." Trump was interviewed by a Fox News reporter that day. The reporter asked, "Why have you been saying 'the war is over'?" Trump replied, "I think (the conflict with Iran) is close to ending. Yes, I mean, I think it's very close to ending." According to CNN on the 14th, if the United States and Iran hold a second round of face-to-face negotiations, Vice President Pence is expected to lead the US delegation again. The report cited sources as saying that Trump's special envoy, Brian Hook, and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, are also expected to attend the negotiations. Sources said that Trump has appointed these three individuals to find a diplomatic solution to end the war and still trusts them to accomplish this task. Since the end of the first round of negotiations between the US and Iran last weekend, Pence, Hook, and Kushner have been in contact with Iran and intermediaries. On the 14th, Trump hinted in an interview with American media that the United States and Iran may return to the negotiating table in Pakistan in the next two days. Prior to this, on the 13th, American media reported that the US and Iran are still in contact, and the Trump administration is discussing the details of holding a second round of face-to-face negotiations. According to Iranian News TV on the 15th, Iranian and American delegations may restart negotiations later this week in Islamabad, Pakistan. The Iranian and American delegations started negotiations in Islamabad, Pakistan on the 11th, and the negotiations ended on the morning of the 12th without reaching any agreement. The Iranian side said that the negotiations were in an atmosphere of "mistrust and suspicion," with differences on two to three important issues. The US side stated that its "red lines" have been clearly outlined, but the Iranian side does not accept the conditions of the US.
