Ankara: US President Donald Trump appeared Wednesday to rule out seeking a third term, saying the US Constitution is 'pretty clear' that he is not allowed to run again.

According to Anadolu Agency, Trump addressed reporters aboard Air Force One while en route to South Korea, highlighting his approval ratings. "It's a very interesting thing. I have the best numbers for any president in many years," Trump expressed. "And I would say that, if you read it, it's pretty clear. I'm not allowed to run. It's too bad. But we have a lot of great people."

Trump's comments emerged in response to inquiries about House Speaker Mike Johnson's remarks. Johnson reportedly informed Trump that there was insufficient time to amend the Constitution to permit a third presidential term.

The US Constitution's 22nd Amendment explicitly limits a president to serving only two terms, further solidifying Trump's acknowledgment of the current constitutional boundaries.
