U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Washington has been "doing very well" militarily and financially against Tehran, describing the current conflict as "a little skirmish with Iran." When asked if he had given up on negotiations with Iran, Trump responded, "No, we're not negotiating," adding, "We'll work it out somehow, it's going to happen very quickly." He noted that most people seem to think this will occur after the midterm elections, but he emphasized, "Everything we've done with Iran is amazing."
