U.S. President Donald Trump said on Oct. 9 that Washington is holding what he described as "productive discussions" with the Islamic Republic of Iran. He also said the United States would not attack Iran at any point before the Nov. 3 midterm elections in the U.S. In the same remarks, Trump said the blockade would remain fully in effect and pointed to oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, saying a record number of barrels were moving through the waterway. He specified that 22 million barrels moved through it the previous night and said none of those barrels came from or were headed to Iran. Trump also repeated that Iran would not obtain nuclear weapons. The remarks were cited by BlockBeats in a brief news update.

Trump said: "Let me make one thing clear to everyone: although Iran is in very bad shape economically and militarily, although the blockade will remain fully in effect, and although oil is flowing through the Strait of Hormuz at record barrel volumes — 22 million barrels last night alone, and not a single barrel came from or was going to Iran — we will not attack Iran at any time before the U.S. midterm elections on Nov. 3."
