President Donald Trump on Tuesday walked back his apparent support for regime change in Iran.
“No, I don’t want it,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday when asked if he wants to see new leadership in the country. “I’d like to see everything calm down as quickly as possible. Regime change takes chaos. And ideally, we don’t want to see so much chaos.”
“You know, the Iranians are very good traders, very good business people, and they’ve got a lot of oil. They should be fine. They should be able to rebuild and do a good job,” he continued.
