Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Dave Mattingly.
President Trump says U.S.
And Iranian officials met for about three hours yesterday on the sidelines
of the UN General Assembly meeting in New York.
No major breakthroughs were announced, and the president offered few details about the talks.
The meeting occurred shortly after Trump threatened to annihilate
Iran if an agreement isn't soon reached to end the war.
Next week will mark seven months since the U.S.
And Israel began attacking Iran.
President Trump met with South Korea's president on the sidelines of the U.N.
General Assembly.
NPR's Anthony Kuhn says the two discussed plans by Seoul for major investments in the U.S.
South Korea's industry ministry briefed lawmakers on the first projects in a deal to invest $350 billion in the U.S.
In exchange for lower tariffs.
They include a gas-fired power plant in Encinal, Texas,
which could help fuel new semiconductor plants and AI data centers in the state.
They also include the building of up to eight nuclear reactors in the U.S.
And a liquid natural gas project in Alaska.
Announcement of the projects came after lengthy negotiations by the two governments,
which still have to approve the plans.
