Donald Trump: Iran wanted to strike first
Earlier, US President Donald Trump spoke about the attack on Iran. During a meeting at the White House with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, he suggested that Iran wanted to attack the United States first.
— We were negotiating with these madmen, and in my opinion they wanted to attack first. They were going to attack. If we didn't do this, they would attack first. I was deeply convinced of that, Trump said. “So if anything, I could have forced Israel to act, but Israel was ready and we were ready,” he added.
A day earlier, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio suggested that Israel intended to attack Iran regardless of the US decision, so the United States decided to do the same.
