US President Donald Trump has issued a mixed assessment of ongoing negotiations with Iran, stating that things are 'going well' and that Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. However, he set a firm deadline, stating that if a long-term agreement is not reached by Wednesday, he may end the current ceasefire and the US will 'have to start bombing again.' Trump made the remarks to reporters aboard Air Force One late Friday in the eastern United States, adding that the US naval blockade of Iran will remain in place regardless. He also claimed to have received 'very good news' regarding Iran but did not provide any details.
