US President Donald Trump has instructed his administration to arrange a meeting with Iranian officials as soon as possible, CNN reported, citing a source familiar with the situation.

“Trump said that the Iranians contacted him through intermediaries on Monday,” the channel noted.

At the same time, the Washington Post, citing sources, writes that Iranian representatives have told the mediators that they are ready to resume talks with the United States, but first they want Israel to stop the attacks.

According to the media outlet, efforts to start negotiations on a ceasefire were led by Oman and Qatar.

Trump reportedly decided to leave the G7 summit in Canada early due to the situation in the Middle East.

The US president also refused to sign a joint statement by the G7 countries calling on Israel and Iran to stop attacking each other, indicating disagreements between Trump and other leaders.
