Trump comments on his ambassador to Türkiye's statement about "strikes on Iran over the weekend"

- US President Donald Trump said he "knew nothing" about a claim made by the US ambassador to Turkey, Tom Barrack, that the United States might launch a strike against Iran this weekend. Trump told reporters in Florida: “Was that my ambassador?

He seems to be a very influential man, I think," he continued. "Well, if so, I don't know anything about him.” Barak told his interviewer, Mario Noval, that there could be a "definite" strike against Iran this weekend.

“Could there be a strike this weekend?” Barak said. Trump has hinted in recent weeks that he may resume the war with Iran after the midterm elections in November.
