India, April 16 -- US President Donald Trump said Thursday that Iran has agreed to hand over its stockpile of enriched uranium and that the two sides were "close" to a peace deal after six weeks of conflict.

"They've agreed to give us back the nuclear dust," Trump told reporters at the White House, referring to the enriched uranium that the US says could be used to build nuclear weapons, AFP reported.

"There's a very good chance we're going to make a deal."
