Trump casts doubt on Iran talks, citing mistrust of negotiators
What's new: At Camp David, the president said he was "losing faith" in Iranian negotiators as prospects for new talks dimmed.
President Donald Trump cast fresh doubt on any new talks with Iran on July 31, saying at Camp David that he was losing confidence in Iranian negotiators. Trump said he was "losing faith in them" because, in his words, they "do lie" and "misrepresent." The remarks signaled a harder line from the White House toward renewed diplomacy with Tehran and added uncertainty around whether another round of negotiations will go forward. Bloomberg identified the comments as coming during a meeting at the presidential retreat in Maryland, where Trump publicly questioned the reliability of Iran's negotiating team.
