US President Donald Trump raised doubts Monday if he would continue with the threat of relaunching military attacks against Iran and said an agreement with Tehran could be reached.
Trump had hinted in recent weeks of renewed attacks on Iran following the US Muslim elections Tuesday. But after a Washington Relecting Pole speech on Monday, he hinted he might be thinking differently.
Asked by reporters whether he was considering the possibility of attacking Iran after mid-term elections, Trump responded to his request.
Iran’s war is a major cause of high gasoline prices weighing on voters, and Trump is under pressure to end the conflict.
Iranian negotiators were in Doha on Sunday for the third consecutive day of talks with Qatari mediators aiming to push ahead with an agreement to end the war. Trump said Monday he believed Iran wanted to reach an agreement and that such an agreement could happen.
Vice President JD Vance reported having had a number of good conversations with Iranians.
Look, the president and I feel very good about the prospects of potentially reaching a negotiated solution. We will continue to work on this, he said.
Trump stressed his main demand that Iran not possess nuclear weapons.
We’ll never let Iran have a nuclear weapon, and they understand that. They understood this and said it recently, Trump said.
If we allowed Iran to have a nuclear weapon, this country would never function the same way. The whole world would be another place, he said.
He insisted that the operation was not really a war because we have done very little fighting recently following the sweeping attacks months ago, in which several Iranian leaders were killed.
We’ve destroyed their first-level leaders, second-level leaders, and they’ve asked us, please stop doing this, and we’ll do it. )
Trump spoke of Iran in a speech described as his final argument for voters before the mid-term US elections Tuesday.
