President Donald Trump said Sunday the United States is not involved in Israel’s military strikes against Iran at this moment, but “it’s possible we could be involved”. In an interview with ABC News, Trump declined to comment on whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked him to get the US more involved. “We’re not involved in it. It’s possible we could get involved. But we are not at this moment involved,” the president said.Trump also shared that he had a lengthy call with Russian President Vladimir Putin Saturday to discuss, in large part, the conflict in the Middle East. He said he would be open to Putin’s idea to serve as a mediator between Israel and Iran. “I would be open to it. [Putin] is ready. He called me about it. We had a long talk about it. We talked about this more than his situation. This is something I believe is going to get resolved,” Trump stated.The president, who stated he gave Iran a “60-day ultimatum” to “make a deal,” told ABC News he is not setting a new deadline.“No, there’s no deadline. But they are talking. They’d like to make a deal. They’re talking. They continue to talk,” the president said. His special envoy Steve Witkoff was set to travel to Oman on Sunday for another round of nuclear talks with Iranian officials. But following Israel’s strikes, Iran called off the meeting.“Something like this had to happen because I think even from both sides, but something like this had to happen. They want to talk, and they will be talking,” Trump said. Meanwhile, reports claimed that Trump vetoed an Israeli plan in recent days to kill Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. “Have the Iranians killed an American yet? No. Until they do, we’re not even talking about going after the political leadership,” a senior US administration official told Reuters.
