Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump wouldn’t commit to attending the next Fox News debate, CNNMoney reported Thursday.

“It’s a long ways away. We’ll see,” Trump was quoted as saying at a press conference in New Hampshire.

Trump skipped the Fox News debate last month and hold his own campaign event instead. The move was Trump’s reaction to a scathing statement from the network in response to comments Trump had made about host Megyn Kelly’s ability to moderate the debate fairly.

Trump has said that he thought refusing to participate in the last Fox debate could’ve hurt his results at the Iowa caucus, where he finished in second place.

The network announced Thursday that it would hold a debate on March 3 in Detroit, with Kelly expected to moderate again.
