President Donald Trump told reporters on Tuesday that he is not weighing the economic burden of the Iran war on everyday Americans when negotiating a deal with the country’s leadership

President Donald Trump on Tuesday downplayed differences with President Xi Jinping over the U.S. and Israel’s conflict in Iran as he headed to Beijing for a high-stakes summit with the Chinese leader.

President Trump said he's only focused on preventing Iran from building a nuclear weapon, not the war's impact on Americans' financial situations.

President Trump said Americans' financial situation isn't motivating him to make a deal, "Not even a little bit," and that he is only focused on preventing Iran from getting nuclear weapons.

Asked whether Americans’ financial situation was motivating him to make a deal, President Trump said bluntly, “Not even a little bit.”

The war in Iran and the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz will be the major discussion items for President Donald Trump in his trip to China.

President Donald Trump said he isn’t motivated by Americans’ financial situations “even a little bit” when negotiating a peace deal with Iran, insisting he is only concerned with preventing Iran from getting ahold of a nuclear weapon.

Iran "is committed to negotiations but what they don't want is surrender. They want to extract concessions," an analyst said.

Kuwait accused Iran of launching a failed attack earlier this month on an island where China is helping build a port in the Middle East nation.

Pakistan denies allowing Iranian aircraft to use its airfields amid U.S.-Iran tensions. President Donald Trump says Pakistani mediation efforts have been "great."
