Trump Open to Iran Talks, Warns of Action Over Cuba Drone Allegations

U.S. President Donald Trump indicated that avenues for negotiation with Iran remain open, even amidst escalating military confrontations between the two nations. Speaking to reporters at the White House on Thursday, Trump responded affirmatively when asked about the possibility of resuming talks with Tehran.

“

Yes. I think negotiations are possible. Of course.

"Yes. I think negotiations are possible. Of course," Trump stated. He further alleged that an agreement had been reached with Iran just two days earlier, but claimed the Iranian side subsequently insisted on additional negotiations. Trump did not provide specific details regarding the nature of this alleged prior agreement.

The President also addressed suspicions surrounding Iran's potential presence of drones in Cuba. "If they have something like that, and it's very likely they do, we will be taking care of it," Trump warned. He emphasized that such a development would not be permitted and confirmed that the U.S. is actively investigating the possibility that Iran might be storing some of these assets.

“

We made an agreement with them two days ago, but they said, 'That agreement won't work. We need further negotiations.'

These remarks follow reports from foreign media suggesting Cuba may have acquired hundreds of drones from Russia and Iran, potentially for use in attacks against U.S. military bases. The Cuban government has vehemently denied these allegations, characterizing them as fabricated claims intended to provide the U.S. with a pretext for invasion.

“

If they have something like that, and it's very likely they do, we will be taking care of it. We will not let that happen. It is possible they are storing some of them, and we are currently investigating.
