US President Donald Trump on Thursday praised the Emir of Qatar for his role in efforts to avoid military conflict with Iran and encourage a diplomatic solution.
“Iran is very lucky to have the emir because he's actually fighting for them,” Trump told reporters. “He doesn't want us to do a vicious blow to Iran. He says you can make a deal, you can make a deal. He's really fighting, and I really mean this.”
Trump said Emir of Qatar has been urging restraint during sensitive nuclear negotiations. “I think that Iran should say a big thank you to the emir because the emir is fighting very much that we don't,” he said.
“There are many people that want me to go the other route,” Trump added. “They say just knock it out because nobody can beat us. We have the strongest military in the world by far.”
