Diplomacy: Trump: US and Iranian representatives have met

US President Donald Trump met with Iranian representatives on the sidelines of the UN General Debate in New York, describing the three-hour conversation as "very good". The meeting follows previous talks between US and Iranian officials in Switzerland in June. Trump did not disclose the names of all participants, but suggested that his chief negotiator Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner were present.

A further meeting is expected, but no details were provided. The talks come amid heightened tensions between the US and Iran, with the conflict now in its seventh month.
