President Donald Trump will decide whether or not to strike Iran in the next two weeks, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Thursday.
She said the president was still holding out on a diplomatic solution, though wouldn't provide details about what U.S.-Iran talks would look like.
Leavitt read a direct statement to reporters from Trump at the top of her briefing.
'Based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks,' the Trump statement read.
Leavitt also said she welcomed a question when a journalist asked if Iran was a few weeks away from 'obtaining enough enriched uranium to start building a weapon' or 'completing production of a weapon.'
