"We think that the situation with Iran could end right after the (November 3) midterm elections, maybe before. I don't know. You never know," Trump said as he met the leaders.
Trump described the leaders at the meeting as "some of America's greatest and closest friends, allies, and partners" working towards "a safer and more prosperous Middle East".
