President Donald Trump said he is "highly unlikely" to restart open war with Iran , but warned he could still strike the country as Washington tries to reach a deal with Tehran to end the conflict. The now more than eight-month-old war, which stoked inflation and sent oil prices surging, has seen repeated bursts of fighting separated by ceasefires and peace talks for months. It was widely speculated that Trump might restart open conflict after the midterm elections, where his Republican Party lost badly to Democrats. Trump's comments came during an interview with CNN , where he said restarting the war is unlikely as long as talks to constrain Iran's nuclear program and reopen the Strait of Hormuz make progress.
