President Donald Trump says U.S.-Iran talks are continuing at a “rapid pace,” pointing to ongoing negotiations despite conflicting reports from Iran. Multiple outlets report that Trump makes the claim in posts on social media, including Truth Social. In contrast, Iranian state media says negotiations are suspended, with one report describing Tehran as suspending all peace talks with the United States. The dispute over the status of the talks comes as tensions and military actions continue. CBS News notes that the timing of Iran’s announcements and Trump’s remarks overlaps with an escalation of attacks in the broader Israel-Hezbollah conflict and ongoing exchanges between Iran and the United States. Business Standard describes a fragile ceasefire that has been repeatedly tested by strikes and counterstrikes, even as both sides pursue discussions to end the wider conflict. None of the reports provide independent confirmation that a final agreement is near, and the outlets note it is unclear how close the sides are to a deal. The situation remains fluid, with the immediate future of negotiations dependent on whether further attacks disrupt talks.

US President Donald Trump on Monday said talks were continuing with Iran at a rapid pace, as fresh strikes by Tehran appeared to hit the fragile ceasefire. "Talks are continuing, at a rapid pace, with the Islamic Republic of Iran," Trump said in a post on Truth Social. The nominal ceasefire between Iran and the US has been repeatedly tested with such back-and-forth attacks, even as officials from both countries try to negotiate an end to the war. It's not clear how close they are to a deal and there is always the risk that an attack could derail those talks.
