U.S. President Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox News that Iran "asked very nicely" for more time to conduct negotiations, so he agreed to extend the deadline for striking energy sites in Iran by 10 days. "They asked for seven days, I gave them 10. They were very grateful." According to him, "If they don't do what they need to do, I will bomb their power plants." Later, he was asked about Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei's sexual orientation and claimed: "The CIA told me Mojtaba is gay."
