What pushed Trump to restart Iran talks Monday?
Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar urged Donald Trump to hold off a strike, so a new round of US-Iran talks begins on Monday. The conflict began in February when the US and Israel struck Iranian nuclear sites, and Iran has since tightened its grip on the Strait of Hormuz. Trump said talks will cover Hormuz shipping and Iran's nuclear programme, with no deadline set.
