ALBAWABA - U.S. President Donald Trump revealed on Wednesday night that he won't resume talks with Tehran, hinting at coming strikes against the Islamic Republic.
He told reporters that there will be no negotiations with Iran, adding that "something one way or the other" will happen "fairly soon".
"No, I think we're not negotiating," Trump said upon returning from a rally in South Carolina. He maintained, "We are going to have something one way or the other that'll happen fairly soon."
Trump added, "Most people seem to think it’s after the election, and we’re going to see what happens."
Moreover, the President revealed that Washington defeated Iran both militarily and financially, noting that Tehran would "never have a nuclear weapon".
This comes amid a report shared by The New York Times claiming that the U.S. and Israeli militaries are setting new plans to renew attacks on Iran, but it is most likely to happen after the American midterm elections, set for Nov. 3.
Nonetheless, the Financial Times reported days ago, citing three people familiar with the matter, that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted to restart large-scale attacks on Tehran on Oct. 10 and that he even instructed the Israeli military earlier this month to set up a plan to carry out a new offensive.
But, Netanyahu's plans were stopped after an order from President Trump, who is against resuming escalation with Tehran before the midterm elections in the United States in November.
