\n

President Donald Trump<\/a> has said the U.S. could not share military plans with Gulf allies while negotiating with Iran, even as a major American naval presence moves into the region.<\/p>\n

Trump, speaking with Fox News Channel Senior White House Correspondent Jacqui Heinrich, responded to reporting that Gulf allies remain in the dark about potential U.S. intervention plans involving Iran.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It comes as Trump is understood to be weighing his options on a possible military strike on Iran<\/a> amid widespread protests and violent crackdowns inside the country.<\/p>\n

TRUMP\u2019S IRAN BRIEFING MAY BE \u2018DECEPTION CAMPAIGN\u2019 TO MASK MOVES ALREADY UNDERWAY, EXPERT SAYS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018Well, we can\u2019t tell them the plan. If I told them the plan, it would be almost as bad as telling you the plan \u2014 it could be worse, actually,\u2019\u2019 Trump said. \u2018\u2018But look, the plan is that [Iran is] talking to us, and we\u2019ll see if we can do something, otherwise we\u2019ll see what happens\u2026 We have a big fleet heading out there, bigger than we had \u2014 and still have, actually \u2014 in Venezuela.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Trump announced earlier this week<\/a> that a \u2018\u2018massive Armada is heading to Iran,\u2019\u2019 led by the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A senior Gulf official told Fox News that Saudi Arabia would not allow the U.S. to use its airspace or bases for an attack. A high-ranking government figure from a Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) state told Fox News that the \u2018\u2018U.S. hasn\u2019t shared objectives or plans\u2019\u2019 regarding Iran with Gulf allies, despite recent high-level Saudi meetings in Washington aimed at gaining clarity.<\/p>\n

Gulf allies have said Iran frequently seeks negotiations, but they remain skeptical that talks will lead to a deal.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018Well, that’s true, but they are negotiating<\/a>, so we’ll see what happens,\u2019\u2019 Trump said, responding to that assessment.<\/p>\n

TRUMP VOWS TO ‘KNOCK THE HELL OUT OF’ IRAN IF NUCLEAR PROGRAM IS REBUILT AGAIN AFTER HIGH-STAKES MEETING<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018You know, the last time they negotiated, we had to take out their nuclear, didn’t work, you know. Then we took it out a different way, and we’ll see what happens,” Trump added.<\/p>\n

Trump also addressed government funding and the risk of a shutdown<\/a>, saying Democrats would bear responsibility if talks collapse.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018I think it\u2019s going fine. We had a big GDP, I lost a point and a half because of the last [shutdown],\u2019\u2019 Trump said. \u2018\u2018So you’ll see what happens. I think the Democrats don’t want it to happen. Makes them look very bad, yeah, but it’s not a good thing for the country. So hopefully, enough people will use their heads.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Asked about Democratic demands that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents remove face coverings as part of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding negotiations, Trump declined to engage, while pointing to recent comments on Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem<\/a> and law enforcement efforts.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018I don’t want to comment on that yet, because it’s not time to,\u2019\u2019 Trump said. \u2018\u2018But I\u2019ll have a comment. You saw my statement on Kristi yesterday. You know where my attitude is. We’re at a low point in history in crime. Since 1900 \u2014 recorded history\u2026 We have the lowest crime<\/a>, the lowest number of murders, the lowest everything, because we’re taking criminals out of our country. And Tom’s doing great.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
