US president Donald Trump has once again left his position open-ended on whether the United States will take military action against Iran amid the worsening conflict with Israel.
Speaking from Washington, Trump said he has “a plan for everything” but refused to share details, adding that “anything could happen.”
"I have a plan for everything, but we will see what happens. They should have made the deal. I had a great deal for them. We talked about it for 60 days, and in the end, they decided not to do it, and now they wish they had," Trump said.
The president said he may meet Iranian officials but claimed it’s “too late” for talks. “They should have taken the deal. We spoke for 60 days. They backed out, and now they wish they hadn’t,” he told reporters. Trump claimed the Iranians now want to come to the White House, but said, “I may do that... anything could happen.”
Speaking about the current situation, Trump added, “I have a meeting in the war room shortly. We are in the middle of something terrible. I hate to see so much death and destruction. . I have ideas as to what I could do, but they are not final. I like to finalise one second before it's due. Things change. Especially with war..."”
US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he does not want to launch a strike on Iran but is prepared to act if needed to stop Iran’s nuclear programme.
Earlier, he said,“I may do it, I may not do it. Nobody knows what I’m going to do.”
Trump left the G7 summit in Canada late Monday ahead of schedule and flew back to the US to focus on the situation.
Meanwhile, Iran’s capital Tehran has been hit by three waves of Israeli airstrikes. Israel claims its jets now have control over Tehran’s airspace. While Iran has fired back with limited missile attacks.
The impact on civilians in Iran is severe. Tehran's streets remain deserted, most businesses are shut, and phone and internet services are disrupted. Thousands have left the city fearing further strikes.
