U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Washington is not currently engaged in negotiations with Tehran, hinting at an imminent shift in the situation surrounding Iran. "We are not negotiating with them. One way or another, something will happen quite soon. It seems most believe it will happen after the elections. We'll see what happens next.

The elections he referred to are the U.S. midterm congressional elections scheduled for November 3rd.
