Trump says Iran negotiations ‘proceeding nicely,’ pushes regional peace framework

VIDEO: There is once again optimism in the Middle East but whether or not it’s the light at the end of the tunnel remains to be seen. Meanwhile Iran says it’s control of the Strait of Hormuz will not be a topic of discussion in the ongoing negotiations. President Donald Trump went on a social media posting frenzy Monday afternoon reposting memes pointing to the former President Barack Obama as the reason for the current war in the Middle East, saying his administration opened the pathway for Iran to develop nuclear weapons. Trump says the ongoing negotiations with the Islamic Republic are “proceeding nicely” as he calls them the world’s number one state sponsor of terrorism.
