Trump at Halloween party ‘as himself’ says he’s ‘in no hurry’ with Iran
US President Donald Trump, who says he came to his Mar-a-Lago Halloween costume party dressed as himself, described not being in a hurry to make a decision on striking Iran. Mediators are trying to prevent a new breakout of war, as Trump says ‘one or two sites’ in Iran still need ‘taking care of’.
Trump says strikes unlikely if peace talks keep moving. After weeks of rumors that the US and Israel were preparing new strikes on Iran, President Donald Trump said it was "highly unlikely" that he would order a new escalation as the Iranians "want to make a deal so badly."
Iran has put forward a two-day proposal developed with Qatari mediators that Washington is examining.
Iranian officials dismissed Trump's latest remarks as 'fake news' after the US president suggested a close to the war.
Trump says Iran is sealed off. Analysts say a small intelligence-focused unit cannot seal Iran’s borders, and others warn it could expand the war.
The US president said the FBI is now investigating the affair. He said he spoke with Jensen Huang and asked him about the affair.
