Trump says Iran wants a deal as US weighs further military action

Trump said Iran now seeks an agreement with Washington while he weighs additional military measures against Tehran.

• Trump told NewsNation that Iran "wants to make a deal" with the United States because it is "losing in every way," financially and militarily.
• Trump said he is considering whether to take further military action against Iran, responding "we'll see what happens" when asked about his prior remarks on possibly "wiping out" Iran.
• The US has allowed an Iranian delegation to attend UN General Assembly meetings in New York next week, with travel and luxury-purchase restrictions, a State Department spokesperson said.
• The remarks came as the US-Iran war enters its seventh month, with no formal negotiations since their agreement collapsed in June.
• Trump said the conflict has cost over $45 billion and that he hopes it is nearing its end.
• Trump claimed Iran would have been able to possess a nuclear weapon had US strikes not targeted its facilities.
• Trump said US forces are making rapid battlefield progress and that the US is winning the war easily, with operations targeting Iran's strategic capabilities.
• Trump said military operations will end soon and reassured energy markets that fuel prices will fall once operations conclude and oil supplies stabilize.
