Trump denies involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict, but leaves the possibility open

United States.- The President of the United States, Donald Trump, denied that the government he leads is involved in the conflict between Israel and Iran, but did not rule out a possible participation depending on how the circumstances develop.

"We are not involved. We may get involved. But right now we are not involved," said Trump, who also expressed his willingness to support an international mediation effort led by Russian President Vladimir Putin. I would be open to it, Putin is ready. He called me to talk about it. We had a long conversation. We talked more about this than about his situation. I think this will be resolved," commented the former president, according to the American chain ABC News.
