US President Donald Trump said on Thursday, local time, that he would soon make a decision on whether to resume the war against Iran.
Trump told reporters at the White House, “Do we want to move forward” with attacks to ensure the elimination of Iran’s nuclear program and that “it won’t happen again?” “I would rather not destroy the rest of the country if possible, but I may have to. You will know soon enough.”
Trump added after a meeting with his national security advisers that the United States had done “everything in its power to control” the situation regarding Iran. “Now we will make a decision.”
The US news website Axios quoted a US official as saying that US Central Command (CENTCOM) was enhancing preparations for a potential resumption of major military operations in Iran, although it had not yet received new orders from Washington.
On another front, the US president said that a “major agreement” to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict could be reached soon, potentially encompassing all of Europe.
Trump told reporters at the White House, “It will be a major agreement, and it will include more than just Ukraine.”
Trump did not specify what the proposed agreement would entail, which countries would participate, or what potential concessions the two sides might make.
