Trump says Iran has agreed to no nuclear weapons, negotiations may resume this weekend

WASHINGTON -- U.S. President Donald Trump claimed Thursday that Iran has agreed not to have a nuclear weapon, saying that Washington is "very close" to making a deal with Tehran, and that the next round of peace talks between the two countries may take place this weekend. During a press availability at the White House, Trump also said that he is not sure whether a two-week ceasefire with Iran, which is set to expire next week, needs to be extended, warning that if no deal is reached, "fighting will resume." "Very important is that Iran does not have a nuclear weapon, and they've agreed to that. Iran's agreed to that, and they've agreed to it very powerfully," he said. "They've agreed to give us back the nuclear dust (which is) way underground because of the attack we made with the big two bombers," he added, referring to Iran's enriched uranium stockpile that can be used to produce a bomb. Trump highlighted that the United States has a "very powerful statement" from Iran that it will not have nuclear weapons "beyond 20 years." "That's beyond (20 years). There is no 20-year limit," he said
