US President Donald Trump is holding a rare cabinet meeting at Camp David to discuss ways to end the military conflict with Iran and the problem of high fuel prices. Both factors, according to the administration, could weaken the Republican Party's position in the upcoming November midterm elections. The standoff with Iran has already lasted five months, although Trump initially expected it to last only a few weeks. This is only the president's third visit to Camp David in his second term. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said this is the thirteenth cabinet meeting of the current term and promised an unconventional atmosphere, calling the event “very fun and unusual.” Traditionally, such meetings last more than an hour, with ministers reporting on their departments' work. After the official part, Trump will head to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, for the weekend.
