US President Donald Trump said that he was prepared to talk to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani but that there was always a chance of US military action against the Islamic Republic.
“So Iran is a place that was extremely hostile when I first came into office,” Trump told British television station ITV. “They were a terrorist nation number one in the world at that time and probably maybe are today.”
On the chances of military action, he said, “There’s always a chance. Do I want to? No. I’d rather not. But there’s always a chance.”
When asked that was he prepared to talk to Rouhani, Trump said, “Yeah of course. I would much rather talk.”
