President Donald Trump is continuing to publicly keep his options open on Iran, telling reporters at the White House Wednesday morning that Iran is interested in negotiations but that he may or may not order a U.S. military strike.
“I may do it, I may not do it, I mean, no one knows what I’m going to do,” Trump said in response to a reporter who asked about a possible strike. “I can tell you this — Iran’s got a lot of trouble. And they want to negotiate.”
The statement comes as the world waits for the Trump administration to make a decision about whether or not to get involved in an escalating conflict between Israel and Iran. Trump said Iran is now asking to restart nuclear talks, but that he “said it’s very late to be talking.”
