Trump again expressed optimism about reaching a deal with Iran.

On May 6, local time, US President Trump expressed optimism about reaching a framework agreement with Iran, believing it "has the potential to yield results." When asked about the specific timeframe (for an agreement), Trump estimated it would be "one week." In an interview that day, Trump expressed optimism about the prospects of an agreement between the US and Iran, stating that a possible agreement would include Iran shipping its highly enriched uranium to the US. Trump said he felt the US was getting closer to an agreement, adding, "I think the chances of an agreement are very high," and that the two sides could potentially reach an agreement next week to end the war. However, he also threatened, "If they don't agree, then we'll bomb them." When asked if a possible agreement included Iran transferring its highly enriched uranium out of the country, perhaps to the US, Trump replied, "Yes, not 'perhaps,' it will be shipped to the United States." Trump also said that Iran would pledge not to operate underground nuclear facilities and would "adhere to this arrangement in good faith for a considerable period of time."
