President Donald Trump stated on Monday that he is "ready for direct talks with Iran at any time" and believes the conflict will conclude "very, very soon, one way or the other." Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump also addressed the movement of bombers from RAF Fairford in the UK, explaining, "They weren't moved by accident. We moved them a little bit, but not too far."

Regarding a plague affecting Russia, Trump expressed sympathy, calling it a "very, very hard disease" that has become difficult to manage due to increasingly resilient bacteria. He noted that medical advancements have not kept pace with the evolving microbes, stating, "The medicine we have is not as effective." He pledged U.S. assistance, saying, "We will help anyone who has a problem like that. We are always ready to help. We will help."

Trump further elaborated on the situation, which he referred to as pneumonia, mentioning that microbes and bacteria have strengthened disproportionately compared to past decades. He reiterated the U.S. commitment to providing aid, stating, "We will help them. We will help them as much as we can." The President indicated that the U.S. is taking the matter seriously and is still in the early stages of assessing it.
