G20 Summit: Trump, Modi and Abe meet over North Korea, Iran

Trump: "We have no rush" to resolve Iran tensions

US President Donald Trump arrived at the G20 Summit venue by car and was greeted by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, the host.

"We'll be discussing trade, we'll be discussing military," Trump told reporters, praising Japanese auto companies building plants in the US.

"The car companies have been terrific. They're coming in and they're building magnificent plants. We haven’t had that, and we very much appreciate it."

North Korea, Iran, and bilateral trade were issues raised in the discussions, though few details were offered.

President Trump continued to insist on Friday he's in no rush to find a resolution for tensions with Iran.
"We have a lot of time. We have no rush. There’s absolutely no time pressure," Trump said as he was meeting Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Trump was responding to a question about his message on Iran during the meeting.

"In the end, hopefully it’s going to work out," Trump said. "If it doesn’t, you’ll be hearing about it."

Later, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi joined for a trilateral meeting. Abe described the grouping as "the foundation of peace and prosperity in the region."

As for US-India trade talks, Trump declared, "It'll be very positive ... I think we will just continue to get along with India ... I think we are going to have some very big things to announce. Very big trade deal."

In a tweet on Thursday, Trump said Indian tariffs on US products were "unacceptable."
