US President Donald Trump will decide whether the United States will strike at Iran, within two weeks. A statement by the American president was quoted at a briefing by a press secretary of the White House Caroline Levitt, BBC News reports.
According to Trump, the probability of negotiations with Tehran is maintained.
“Based on the fact that there is a significant probability of negotiations with Iran, which may take place or not take place in the near future, I will decide over the next two weeks,” Levitt reported the words of the US president.
- According to The Wall Street Journal, Trump approved the US strike plan for Iran, but did not give the final order. The US President told senior assistants that he was approved by attack plans, but so far refrains from her to see if Tehran would refuse his nuclear program.
- On June 17, ABC News reported that the next 24-48 hours will be decisive to determine whether the diplomatic solution to the conflict with Iran is possible, or the United States will have to resort to military operations.
- The Supreme Leader of Iran Ali Khamenei in a television show said that the Americans should keep in mind that "any military intervention against Iran would undoubtedly cause irreparable damage to them."
