President Donald Trump told NBC News on Sunday that
he did not send a message to Tehran warning Iran of a U.S. attack, which he
later called off.
Iranian sources told Reuters that Trump had warned
Tehran via Oman that a U.S. attack was imminent, but had said he was against
war and wanted talks.
"I did not send that message," Trump said
on NBC's Meet the Press program, adding, "I'm not looking for war."
Asked what he thinks Iran wants, he said, "I
think they want to negotiate. And I think they want to make a deal. And my deal
is nuclear. Look, they're not going to have a nuclear weapon ... I don't think
they like the position they're in. Their economy is, is absolutely
broken."
