00:01US President Donald Trump on Sunday said his representatives will hold talks with the Iranians
00:07over their peace deal early next week in Pakistan. Trump said the United States is offering a very
00:13fair and reasonable deal, and he said if Iran did not take it, the US forces will knock out
00:19Iran's power plants and bridges. He said the Iranians fired at ships in the Strait of Hormuz,
00:25which was a violation of the two-week ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran,
00:30which will end on Wednesday. He said many were aimed at a French ship and a freighter from the
00:35United Kingdom. The announcement by Iran to close the Strait came after they complained of the US
00:42naval blockade in the area, which Trump said had caused Iran to lose 500 million US dollars a day.
00:49Turkish Foreign Minister Haqqan Fidan said the two sides have the will to continue talks to end the
00:54war in Iran.
00:55It is a long time for a war, but it is so close that it will not be able to
01:02solve all these
01:02issues in two weeks in two weeks. Therefore, it will need a new movement. This movement will
01:11come in, hopefully. I will be able to do that. But we need to make sure some issues. We see
01:19that the negotiations will continue. But it is very critical that the negotiations will
01:26continue to continue.
01:31Iranian parliament speaker and chief negotiator Mohamed Bakr Khalibaf said both sides had different
01:37opinions regarding the nuclear issue and Strait of Hormuz. But Iran is acting in good faith
01:42in the negotiation.
02:09Washington and Tehran continued to face disagreements over nuclear issues.
02:13including getting Iran to abandon its nuclear weapon program, where Iranian President Masud Pazeshkian once again said on Sunday that
02:22Iran is merely exercising its rights denied by the U.S.
