Trump Makes Sobering Admission About Iran Negotiations, Talks About Chances of Drawn-Out Middle East War if He Attacks
President Trump said Friday that he’s “not happy” about the progress of talks with Iran — while telling reporters that “there’s always a risk” that US airstrikes could result in another drawn-out war in the Middle East.
“I’m not happy with the fact that they’re not willing to give us what we have to have. I’m not thrilled with that. We’ll see what happens,” Trump said — one day after Iranian diplomats rebuffed his demands to give up their nuclear program during talks in Geneva.
“We are talking later. We’ll have some additional talks today. But no, I’m not happy with the way they are going.”
Trump insisted that “we haven’t made a final decision” on whether to follow through with threatened strikes following a massive buildup of American naval and air assets within striking distance of Iran.
“We’re not exactly happy with the way they’re negotiating. They cannot have nuclear weapons,” he reiterated.
A reporter then asked Trump if there was “a risk that strikes could turn into a long, drawn-out conflict in the Middle East.” (Read more from “Trump Makes Sobering Admission About Iran Negotiations, Talks About Chances of Drawn-Out Middle East War if He Attacks” HERE)
