Donald Trump, the President of the United States, said in an interview with Israel’s Channel 12 that he is not in a hurry to resume the war with the Islamic Republic and would prefer for economic pressures on Tehran to continue for now.

He emphasized that these pressures have paralyzed Iran’s economy and that the Islamic Republic is seeking a deal more than at any other time since the start of the war.
