U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters at the G7 summit in Canada that Iran wants to de-escalate the conflict with Israel, noting that Tehran “ is not winning this war,” CNN reports.
“Yeah,” Trump told CNN, when asked whether he’s seen any signals or messages from intermediaries that Iran wishes to de-escalate the conflict. “They’d like to talk, but they should have done that before. I had 60 days, and they had 60 days, and on the 61st day, I said, ‘We don’t have a deal.’”
He continued: “They have to make a deal, and it’s painful for both parties, but I’d say Iran is not winning this war, and they should talk, and they should talk immediately, before it’s too late.”
Trump declined to say what, if anything, would prompt US military involvement in the conflict, telling reporters Monday, “I don’t want to talk about that.”
“We’ve always supported Israel. We have for a long period of time, strongly, and Israel is doing very well right now,” he said.
