Trump says Iran deal may be reached 'soon'

TEHRAN - US President Donald Trump said Sunday that the US-Israel war against Iran has achieved regime change and a deal could be reached "soon" with Tehran.

Iran launched strikes on Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, meanwhile after Iranian electrical facilities came under attack, cutting power to parts of Tehran and surrounding areas. As Israel continued to press its offensive against Iran-backed Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, the UN Force in Lebanon said a peacekeeper had been killed on Sunday and another critically injured by a projectile that hit a UNIFIL position. UNIFIL said they did not know the origin of the projectile but were investigating. Trump, citing the number of Iranian leaders who have been killed in the month-long US-Israeli war against Iran, said regime change has already been achieved and the new leadership is "much more reasonable". "We've had regime change," he told reporters aboard Air Force One. "We're dealing with different people than anybody's dealt with before. It's a whole different group of people. So I would consider that regime change." Asked whether there could be a deal with Iran this coming week, Trump said: "I do see a deal in Iran. Could be soon." In Pakistan, the government is looking to capitalise on its links with Teharan and the Gulf states, as well as a budding rapport with Trump, to broker peace talks. "Pakistan is very happy that both Iran and the US have expressed their confidence in Pakistan to facilitate the talks," Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said. But the speaker of Iran's parliament has accused Washington of using diplomacy as a smoke screen. "The enemy publicly sends messages of negotiation and dialogue while secretly planning a ground attack," Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said in a statement carried by the official IRNA news agency. "Our men are waiting for the arrival of the American soldiers on the ground to set them on fire and punish their regional allies once and for all," he added. (Bssnews)
