Donald Trump considers attacking. US and Iran “on the brink of war”


Trump has not yet made a decision to launch an attack on any scale, the sources said. Considering various options: from a week-long campaign of attacks aimed at forcing regime change to a smaller wave of attacks on the Iranian government and military facilities. Some U.S. officials and analysts warn that such attacks would encourage Iran to retaliate, potentially drawing the U.S. into a broader war in the Middle East and endangering regional allies.

Tension between the US and Iran continues

If the initial attack is approved, the strike could be carried out in the coming days — say the newspaper's sources. The target of the attack would be several military or government facilities.

If Iran continues to refuse to comply with Trump's order to end uranium enrichment, the US is expected to launch a wide-scale campaign against regime facilities, potentially aimed at overthrowing the authorities in Tehran.

On Thursday, Trump said he would make a decision on Iran within 10 days. He later told journalists that the deadline he set was about two weeks at most. “We will make an agreement or reach an agreement one way or another,” he said.

In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly threatened Iran with intervention, including military attack, if an agreement to curb the country's nuclear program is not reached. The US has strengthened its military presence in the Middle East. CBS News reported on Wednesday that The Pentagon is temporarily transferring some personnel from this region to Europe and the USA in connection with a possible American attack on Iran and potential retaliation from Tehran.

White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt, summarizing the outcome of Tuesday's negotiations in Geneva, said that despite some progress, the positions of the US and Iran are still very divergent. She emphasized that the US president had to make a decision regarding a possible strike against Iran.

On Wednesday Axios wrote that Trump is increasingly leaning towards a large-scale attack against Iranand Israel, which supports this option, is preparing for the outbreak of war within a few days. In the next publication, the portal concluded that the USA and Iran were on the brink of war.
