US President Donald Trump said Wednesday that there is a “very good chance” of making a deal with Iran before he travels to China.
“I think we’ll have a very good chance of making a deal again,” Trump told PBS, adding that while reaching a settlement before next week would be “ideal,” it is not a requirement. Trump’s state visit to China is set for May 14 – 15 in Beijing.
The president warned, however, that if negotiations fail, Washington would “go back to our old ways,” a reference to resuming a heavy bombing campaign.
