Quote: "The Iranians want to meet. They want to make a deal. I think a meeting will probably take place over the weekend. I think we will get a deal in the next day or two."

Details: Several sources familiar with the negotiations told Axios that although significant progress has been made and the US and Iran are now close to agreeing on a three-page peace plan, differences remain on key issues.

Trump said the agreement will "make Israel safe" and stressed that "Israel is going to come out great" at the end of the war.
