After weeks of rumors that the U.S. and Israel were preparing new strikes on Iran, U.S. 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."
Asked whether he intended to escalate the conflict following the elections, the U.S. leader told CBS News he was not seeking further escalation.
"I'm not looking to. I don't think there's any reason to," Trump said.
The U.S. leader explained why he is “not looking to” further escalate the war on Iran.
"They have nothing. It's buried under thousands of tons of rock," Trump said.
