'Steve, Jared held 3-hr talks': Trump confirms meeting with Iranians after ‘annihilate Iran’ threat
President Trump revealed Tuesday that his special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner held a three-hour meeting with Iranian leaders on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly. The sitdown began around 10 a.m. — occurring while the president threatened to ramp up the war to “drive them into hell” during his speech to the annual gathering of world leaders. It was not immediately clear who represented Iran, though the country’s president, Masoud Pezeshkian, and foreign minister Abbas Araghchi were in New York to attend UN meetings.
