News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I
made Kaleigi, Iran says the first formal talks with the
Trump administration over its nuclear program were constructive, with both
sides agreeing to meet again next week. The two sides
discussed Iran's nuclear program and the lifting of sanctions in
a constructive atmosphere and with mutual respect. The Iranian Foreign
(00:22):
Ministry said this in a statement after indirect talks, which
lasted for more than two hours. In a statement, the
White House labeled Saturday's talks as a step forward. Israel
Defense Forces completed the Morag Corridor, a new route separating
Gaza's southern Raffa Governate from the rest of the strip.
As Defense Minister Israel Katz said, intensive IDF activity will
(00:43):
soon expand into most of Gaza. The completion of the corridor,
announced by the IDF on Saturday, completely encircles Rafa in
southern Gaza and makes the entire area between the Philadelphia
Corridor and Marag part of the Israeli security zone. The
defense chief said more evacuations are underway as Israeli expands
its combat zone. Buyout firm KKR is said to be

Sources say KKAR is nearing a deal to buy Astra

resilient companies can still be sold. The New York based

out other suitors. According to sources, a deal could be
announced as early as next week. Several private equity firms,
(01:32):
including GTCR, Advent International and CVC Capital Partners, were pursuing Austra,
which conducts post trade services in the foreign exchange and
derivative markets. The sources say the KKR Astra talks are
ongoing and could still fall apart. Denise Pellegrine Bloomberg Radio.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
That's, of course, we are unhappy about thirty one percent,
which is huge, and so we would like to talk
about how in fact we can come back to a
normal basis of tariffs together. And we both agreed that
we have to find a solution. So, as I said,
it was very constructive. We both agreed to really find
(02:31):
a solution, and he promised to look at the situation
and then we would have a dialogue again.

country to return samples from the Moon's far side last year,
volcanic rock and dirt from an ancient impact basin. Researchers
(03:51):
