US President Donald Trump says he had not heard from Iran about their suspending talks with Washington, but he believes there has been too much talking and some silence would be good, according to Reuters.

“I think we’ve been talking too much if you want to know the truth. I think going silent would be very good, and that could be for a long time,” Trump says in an interview with NBC News.
