WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump says he does not foresee a war with Iran over the situation in Iraq, claiming that the US marines have handled the situation well.
The US president made the comments as he arrived with first lady Melania Trump at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, on Tuesday.
The American commander in chief further thanked the central government in Iraq amid protests outside the US embassy in the capital Baghdad.
The situation has further damaged the Washington-Baghdad relations.
