WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump sought to downplay the potential collapse of peace talks with Iran, saying the negotiations "started to get very boring" and that he "couldn't care less" if the talks are over.

"I don’t care if they’re over, honestly," Trump said.

For weeks, Trump has insisted Iran wants to make a deal with the U.S. after the Trump administration began its military campaign in Iran with airstrikes on Feb. 28.

Although the price of oil rose on news of Iran halting negotiations, Trump told CNBC he wasn't worried about the rising costs.

Despite his remarks to CNBC, Trump later seemed to counter any suggestions that negotiations with Iran have stalled.

Speaking to NBC News, Trump said he had not heard from Iranian officials that they're suspending talks but added that he would welcome silence.

Trump has said repeatedly that Iran must dispose of its enriched uranium and end its nuclear program as part of any deal. »
