WASHINGTON, 9 November, 2026 (Ghufran): US President Donald Trump has described the possibility of renewed military conflict with Iran as extremely low, saying he would prefer reaching a strong agreement with Tehran rather than resuming military operations. However, he warned that the future course of action would depend on whether Iran agrees to sign a strong deal with the United States. According to Agence France-Presse (AFP), Trump made these remarks during an interview with CNN, saying the chances of fighting Iran again were very low. He added that although military action could be resumed if necessary, the current situation was different. Trump said the United States had already carried out extremely severe military operations against Iran, claiming that Washington had inflicted substantial damage on the country and that the scale of the military action was difficult to comprehend. The US president emphasized that any decision regarding a possible return to war would be linked to the outcome of negotiations with Iran. He indicated that reaching a strong agreement would significantly influence the situation, suggesting that diplomacy remained his preferred option at this stage. Trump’s remarks came ahead of his expected meeting with the Prime Minister of Qatar, whose country has been playing a key mediating role in efforts to reduce tensions between Washington and Tehran. Qatar has been facilitating diplomatic contacts between the two sides and supporting efforts to reach a possible agreement. However, Trump’s comments did not indicate that a new deal had been finalized or that negotiations had achieved a conclusive breakthrough.
