WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump on Saturday said that canceling his envoys’ trip to Islamabad for talks did not automatically mean war with Iran would restart despite the setback in peace efforts.

Asked whether the cancellation meant he would resume the war, Trump told Axios: “No. It doesn’t mean that. We haven’t thought about it yet.”
