STATEMENT FROM THE WHITE HOUSE

“U.S. Special Presidential Envoy Steven Witkoff, accompanied by U.S. Ambassador to Oman Ana Escrogima, conducted talks today in Muscat with Iranian Foreign Minister Dr. Abbas Araghchi, which were hosted by Omani Foreign Minister Said Badr.  The discussions were very positive and constructive, and the United States deeply thanks the Sultanate of Oman for its support of this initiative.  Special Envoy Witkoff underscored to Dr. Araghchi that he had instructions from President Trump to resolve our two nations’ differences through dialogue and diplomacy, if that is possible. These issues are very complicated, and Special Envoy Witkoff’s direct communication today was a step forward in achieving a mutually beneficial outcome. The sides agreed to meet again next Saturday.”

Witkoff spent four hours with Putin yesterday, then he flew straight to Oman for these talks. Russia, China and Iran had meetings last week while Trump met with Bibi. Much to the chagrin of the “bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran” crowd, Trump, with Putin mediation, is going to get this deal done.

I am afraid they are going to be played by the Iranian masters of deception.

Praying that does not happen. Sounds like Hamas played him. Hope he learned.

So much jibberish having nothing to do with America and the well-being of the middle class in one small phrase.

Thank you for the DC MIC warmongering stooge perspective. Kill, kill, spend, kill, spend, spend! Yeah, a war with Iran that totally derails all of Trump’s domestic agenda has no effect on the American middle class. Spending the hundreds of billions for your entertainment has no effect. Thousands of US body bags has no bearing on the American middle class.

Condolences for your Project Ukraine that Trump shut down.

What?!? Played out of a war that would kill thousands of American boys, destroys Trump’s domestic agenda, destroys much of the world’s economy and costs hundreds of billions?

When did you EVER see Trump get played by a foreign adversary?

You want to see Trump succeed? The whole second term goes up in smoke if a war with Iran comes.
