He stated that Poland was funding Ukraine's subscription and that a speed limit had resulted in canceled drone missions.

The signals are contradictory: Trump claims that the U.S. will not attack Iran before the midterm elections. Trump has made various statements and has now said that the war may resume, but only after the midterm elections. In his speech at the UN General Assembly in September, Trump threatened to "obliterate the Islamic Republic" if there is no agreement. Trump claimed at a campaign rally this week that the leaders in Iran are under such pressure that they are ready to give in. What Trump cannot get past is that when the U.S. began the bombing war against Iran in February, together with Israel, he broke his explicit campaign promise not to engage the U.S. in a new "endless war." Trump boasted of great successes and declared victory repeatedly. #Iran #USA #Trump (translated)
