Donald Trump has confirmed that the U.S. has held secret talks with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as pressure mounts to end the ongoing conflict. Trump demanded that Tehran “put up the white flag,” while saying he is in no hurry to reach an agreement and has no fixed timetable for ending the war. He also dismissed concerns about U.S. weapons stockpiles, calling the weapons used so far “peanuts.” Trump further discussed Israel’s political future, saying he would stay out of the country’s elections while leaving open the possibility of endorsing a candidate. The comments come amid heightened tensions between America, Iran and Israel.
