Donald Trump has issued a public appeal to Iranian leadership, urging the release of detained women ahead of potential negotiations with US representatives.
In a strongly worded message, Trump said he would “greatly appreciate” the release and emphasized that such a move would be seen as a positive gesture. He added that ensuring the women’s safety would be “a great start” to upcoming diplomatic discussions.

The statement comes amid heightened tensions between the United States and Iran, with both sides signaling cautious openness to dialogue while maintaining firm positions on key issues.
Trump’s remarks appear aimed at setting a humanitarian tone ahead of negotiations, potentially framing the release as a confidence-building measure. It remains unclear how Iranian authorities will respond or whether this appeal will influence the course of talks.
