Iran would have signed a deal to resolve the conflict with the United Stated if not for the 2 November midterms, US President Donald Trump argued.
"They (Iran - TASS) were ready to make a deal with me. We would have had a deal except for this election, and we'll make a deal anyway," the US leader told CBS News in an interview.
The midterm Congressional election was won by Democrats who will hold control of both houses as the 120th Congress convenes in early January.
