WASHINGTON, Jun 12: US President Donald Trump on Thursday announced a "great settlement" to end the war with Iran, saying he expected a deal to be signed in Europe as soon as this weekend.
Trump -- who is hosting a cage fight Sunday at the White House on his 80th birthday -- said Vice President JD Vance would represent the United States.
The US leader's claim came just hours after he promised fresh strikes against Iran, before calling them off. There was no confirmation from Iran, and Trump revealed few concrete details about what each side had agreed to.
"We just made a great settlement of the war with Iran," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.
The two sides would, "subject to finalization of documents, which should get done over the next few days, probably have a signing, maybe in Europe. It's a great thing."�" AFP
