Trump Says “Very Good Talks” Underway on Russia-Ukraine War as Peace Efforts Continue 
U.S. President Donald Trump suggested on Sunday that a ceasefire between Israel and Iran was still possible, but acknowledged that the two nations might need to “fight it out” before any peace deal is reached. Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said, “Sometimes they have to fight it out, but we’re going to see what happens. I think there’s a good chance there will be a deal.”
In an earlier interview with ABC News, Trump said U.S. involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict was possible, though he didn’t specify in what capacity. On social media, he added that discussions and meetings aimed at brokering a ceasefire were already underway.
Trump’s comments come after a weekend of escalating violence. Israel launched strikes on Iran on Friday, reportedly targeting Tehran’s nuclear facilities. In response, Iran retaliated, triggering deadly exchanges that killed scores of civilians and military personnel. The fighting intensified in both Tel Aviv and Tehran, with little sign of de-escalation.
Multiple reports also surfaced claiming Trump vetoed an Israeli plan to assassinate Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, though these claims remain unverified. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signaled a hardline approach, vowing to intensify Israel’s offensive against Iran.
The growing conflict has raised global concerns, with world leaders urging restraint amid fears of a broader regional war. The Biden administration has yet to make an official statement on Trump’s remarks or the reported assassination veto. As tensions mount, attention now turns to whether diplomatic efforts can prevent a full-scale war between two of the Middle East’s most powerful nations.
