Trump Says He Is 'Open' to Discuss Lifting Sanctions on Iran

US President Donald Trump said he is open to discussing lifting sanctions imposed since 2018 after Iran's nuclear program concerns, amid ongoing regional tensions.

  • On November 6, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump said Iran has asked for heavy U.S. sanctions to be lifted and he is open to discussing it at the White House.
  • Years of sanctions followed the United States' 2018 withdrawal from the nuclear accord, with previous talks aiming to trade curbs on Tehran's nuclear activities for sanctions relief.
  • After taking office for his second term, U.S. President Donald Trump restored a maximum-pressure campaign, and June U.S. strikes targeted Iran's nuclear sites, damaging the programme though impact remains unclear.
  • Oman urged both sides to return to negotiations as Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Monday cooperation is impossible while the United States supports Israel and maintains bases; Iran's mission to the United Nations did not respond.
  • Western countries long accuse Iran of seeking atomic weapons while Tehran insists its programme is peaceful, and the five rounds of Tehran's nuclear talks before June complicate diplomacy amid UN 'snapback' sanctions.
