Press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Iran was expected to provide more details on its negotiating position “in the next couple of weeks” after talks with US officials in Geneva.
But she wouldn’t say whether Trump would hold off on military action within that timespan.
“I’m not going to set deadlines on behalf of the president the United States,” Leavitt said.
While “diplomacy is always his first option,” Leavitt said, military action remains an option.
“There’s many reasons and arguments that one could make for a strike against Iran,” she said, adding Trump was relying on counsel from his national security team “first and foremost.”
“He’s always thinking about what’s in the best interest of the United States of America, of our military, of the American people,” Leavitt added, in particular.
