April 13, 2026 • Al Jazeera
US President Donald Trump has stated that Iran’s goal is to reach a peace deal “very badly”. Following discussions in Islamabad, no agreement was reached between the parties involved.
According to Trump, any potential framework for a peace deal would require Iran to agree not to develop nuclear weapons. The US president emphasized this point during his remarks on the talks.
The Islamabad meeting did not result in an agreement, and the details of the negotiations remain unclear. However, it is reported that the discussions centered around various issues related to regional security and cooperation.
Trump’s comments suggest that any future peace deal would need to address Iran’s nuclear program as a key aspect. The US president’s statement underscores the importance of this issue in the talks.
The outcome of the Islamabad meeting has been met with uncertainty, and it remains to be seen whether an agreement can be reached in the future. Further details on the negotiations are not available at this time.
It is worth noting that the discussions took place in Islamabad, a city in Pakistan where the US and Iran have held talks in the past. The talks were reportedly aimed at improving relations between the two countries.
The specifics of the agreement or framework being discussed remain unclear, but Trump’s comments suggest that addressing Iran’s nuclear program will be a crucial aspect of any potential peace deal.
