U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday declined to explain what he meant by a social media post suggesting that 'help is on the way' for protesters in Iran.
Asked by a journalist to clarify what kind of assistance he was referring to, Trump told reporters they would have to “figure that one out,” offering no further details.
Trump made the remarks during a visit to Detroit, where he travelled to deliver a speech on the U.S. economy.
He was also questioned about reports of protesters killed during recent demonstrations in Iran. Trump said no accurate figures had been provided to him, adding that estimates varied widely.
“Nobody’s been able to give me an accurate number,” Trump said, adding that he expected more information to emerge within the next 24 hours.
Trump did not elaborate on his comments or indicate whether the United States planned any specific action in response to the protests.
