The president, who spoke to reporters aboard Air Force One as he heads to Florida for the weekend, gave a brief answer and did not elaborate when asked if he was considering strikes on land in Venezuela.

The Trump administration has carried out a series of strikes on boats in the Pacific Ocean that it contends were carrying drugs. The strikes have killed 61 people and the U.S. has also built up an unusually large force of warships in the region.

Trump also declined to clarify if the U.S. will conduct tests of its nuclear weapons.

The president was asked if his social media post this week about nuclear tests meant that the U.S. would resume testing its nuclear weapons in underground detonation tests, which it has not done since 1992, and he replied: “You’ll find out very soon,” without elaborating.

He said, “We’re going to do some testing” and “Other countries do it. If they’re going to do it, we’re going to” but then refused to offer more details.

His comments on nuclear testing have drawn confusion inside and outside the government when the president seemed to suggest on social media that the U.S. would resume nuclear warhead tests for the first time in three decades on an “equal basis” with Russia and China, whose last known tests were in the 1990s.

Trump said he spoke to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney during his Asia travels this week, but said that trade negotiations had not resumed.

Trump said earlier he wanted to impose another 10% tariff hike on imports of Canadian goods because of an anti-tariff television ad aired by the province of Ontario. The television ad used the words of former President Ronald Reagan to criticize U.S. tariffs.
