President Donald Trump said Sunday that the United States is “low-keying” negotiations with Iran and signaled an emphasis on increasing economic pressure on the country, APA reports citing Axios.
“We are low-keying it,” Trump said in a phone interview with Axios.
“We are only semi-negotiating with them. We are just watching Iran with its huge inflation and the fact they have no money,” he said.
Trump told Axios that Iran “is in very bad shape” economically, saying Tehran does not have money to pay soldiers.
“It will work out. It always works out. It’s like a chess game,” Trump said.
