President Trump is keeping all options on the table, Mr. Waltz said Sunday on NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the president is doing right now, as we\u2019ve seen all along, is giving the talks some space,\u201d he said. \u201cTalks are ongoing. They\u2019re happening at every level from the more technical aspects of it, all the way to the highest levels.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Waltz said there is division among Iranian officials, with some sides pushing for more aggressive actions against the U.S. and its allies while others want to move in a different direction.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat makes it hugely challenging from a diplomatic standpoint to get to some reasonable resolution here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt first \u2026 this was about regime change. Then it became about nuclear weapons, then about ballistic missiles, then about the [Iranian] navy,\u201d Mr. Kelly said Sunday on \u201cMeet the Press.\u201d \u201cThis thing has been a disaster. It\u2019s been a disaster for the American people.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said the Pentagon is rapidly burning through its critical missile and weapons stockpiles due to the conflict with Iran.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis thing has been a disaster, and they do not know what to do,\u201d Mr. Kelly said.<\/p>\n
