The US president has rejected claims that he is rushing to end the conflict ahead of midterm elections

The US is not setting any deadlines for concluding the war against Iran, President Donald Trump has said.

The remarks contrast with Trump's earlier claim, made shortly after the US and Israel launched attacks on Iran on February 28, that the fighting would last "four to five weeks." He also repeatedly said over the past month that the war would be over "very soon."

The US president told Fox News on Wednesday that there is "no time frame" and no rush to end the conflict.

"People say I want to get it over because of the midterms, not true," Trump said.
