Trump: No Immediate Plan to Strike Iran

Shenchao TechFlow news, November 04, according to the UK's Financial Times, Trump said the United States currently has no immediate plan to strike Iran. He downplayed speculation that it was preparing to escalate the conflict with Iran after the midterm elections. In an interview with the Financial Times on Tuesday local time, Trump suggested that he was satisfied with the current stalemate with Iran. He also said, however, that he was prepared for further military action if necessary. During a six-minute telephone interview, Trump said: “We seem to be getting everything we want.” When asked whether Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu had strongly hinted at launching an attack later this week, Trump said: “I am ready, we are ready. If action is needed, we can strike at any time, but perhaps it will not be necessary at all.”

Trump claimed that energy prices would fall sharply after the midterm elections, that more oil is currently passing through the Strait of Hormuz than before the war, and that the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports is successfully strangling Tehran's economy. Trump said: “This is an excellent situation.” Trump emphasized that he would not share any attack plans in advance, but said indirect negotiations with Iran on the nuclear issue are still ongoing.
