U.S.-Iran negotiations set to begin Monday, Trump says after calling off strikes
President Trump said Sunday that negotiations with Iran are set to begin Monday afternoon. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Mr. Trump elaborated on the decision to hold off attacks on Iran and again said it would have been the "biggest attacks since World War II." "It would have been disastrous for them and they didn't want us to do it," he said. "The deal is imminent, having to do with the Hormuz Strait and also, ultimately, the denuclearization of Iran." The president confirmed he spoke with Saudi Arabia's crown prince, who, according to Mr. Trump, told the president he'd prefer to make a deal with Iran.
