Trump: New Iran attacks "quite unlikely"

GlobeAlert Desk · curated from Axios · Middle East

President Trump said Monday that a renewed military campaign against Iran is "quite unlikely" and "doesn't seem to be necessary."Why it matters: Trump stopped short of saying the war was over, but his comments on Truth Social and at an impromptu press conference were the most forward-leaning in that direction since February. Trump made his comments less than a week after conceding that the war was one of the reasons for the Republican defeat in the midterm elections. This is a breaking new story. Check back for updates.
