NEW YORK, February 7. /TASS/. US President Donald Trump is interested in a peaceful settlement to the conflict with Iran, Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said.

"I think he (Trump - TASS) really would love to see a peaceful outcome," he said in an interview with Fox News. Speaking about the likelihood of US military strikes on Iran, the diplomat did not call the attack inevitable. "I don't know that they [the strikes] are inevitable," Huckabee noted.
