1:53Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump is playing down differences with France over Iran, telling French President Emmanuel Macron that they both agree Tehran should not have nuclear weapons.
Trump reiterated his offer to reopen negotiations with Tehran over its nuclear program. Speaking Thursday with Trump in Caen, France, Macron agreed that a new negotiation needs to be opened with Iran.
The U.S. withdrew last year from a nuclear deal between Iran and world powers and re-imposed harsh economic sanctions on Iran. Trump recently sent military assets to the region, citing intelligence reports of threats of attacks from Iran.
Other signatories to the Iran deal — France, Germany, Britain, Russia and China — have been struggling to keep Iran in the deal and reduce tension.
Security, the fight against terrorism, instability in the Middle East, trade and Iran are all topics President Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron are expected to discuss in a meeting that has gotten under way in Caen, France.
The two are meeting Thursday after attending a ceremony at Normandy American Cemetery marking the 75th anniversary of D-Day. Afterward, Trump flew to Caen where he and first lady Melania Trump were welcomed with a red carpet, French troops and a military band.
At the D-Day ceremony, Trump and Macron chatted and shared warm handshakes, but they disagree on key issues, including climate change, Iran and world trade.
