Trump to give primetime address on war as questions swirl over his next move

The US president finds himself under growing pressure at home to avoid a protracted conflict.

President Trump is set to address the nation at 9 p.m. ET tonight at a critical moment in the war the U.S. is conducting against Iran – his first formal address since the start of the war more than a month ago.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday doubled down on threats to pull the United States out of NATO, telling Reuters he is “absolutely” considering an exit and is expected to rebuke the alliance for its lack of cooperation in a nationally televised address at 9 p.m. Eastern, according to Reuters.

According to the Associated Press, the White House has said that President Donald Trump will deliver a prime-time address on Wednesday evening to update the public on the Iran war.
