Trump says 'positive momentum' toward end of Iran conflict

Washington, Nov 10 (Sputnik/UNI)The United States sees a positive momentum toward an end of the conflict against Iran, but is ready to conduct strikes, US President Donald Trump said.
"All have agreed that Iran cannot have a Nuclear Weapon — That is non-negotiable! Should there be any change with respect to developments in the Middle East, the United States of America is 'locked and loaded' and ready to go. At this point, however, that seems to be quite unlikely. Israel, and the entire Middle East, are protected from Iranian danger and threats. We are seeing positive momentum toward an end to this Conflict, and will ensure that America's interests are at all times protected," Trump wrote on Truth Social following the talks with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani.
Earlier on the day, Trump told Reuters that the United States is "ready 'to go' anytime we want" with strikes on Iran.
