He told Fox News correspondent Aisha Hasni about this at the White House.

Trump said that the US delegation should not make an 18-hour flight to Pakistan when the US holds all the cards in the conflict with Iran.

He added that Iranians can call the US at any time.

No, you're not going to take an 18-hour flight to get there. We have all the cards. They can call us anytime, but you're not going to take an 18-hour flight to sit around and chat with them about nothing anymore.
