Shafaq News/ On Thursday, US President
Donald Trump said he is in “no rush” to launch a military strike on Iran, two
days before indirect US-Iran nuclear talks in Rome.

Asked about a New York Times report
that he blocked an Israeli plan to attack Iran in May, Trump clarified, “I
wouldn’t say waved off. I am not in a rush to do it.”

“That’s the first option,” he added.
“The second one would be very bad for Iran … Iran cannot have nuclear
weapons—it’s very simple.”

The New York Times reported Thursday
that Trump halted Israeli preparations for a strike on Iran’s nuclear
facilities, opting instead for renewed diplomatic engagement to limit Tehran’s
nuclear program.

US and Iranian delegations are set to
hold indirect talks in Rome on Saturday.
