President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he has no plans to strike Iran before the midterm election.

ā€œWe will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections to be held in the United States on November 3rd,ā€ Trump declared on Truth Social, adding that the administration is ā€œhaving productive discussionsā€ with Tehran and that his main goal is to ensure the country does not obtain a nuclear weapon.

The president’s comments come after multiple media reports detailed the administration planning for potential new strikes before the elections — just 26 days away.
