U.S. President Donald Trump stated Thursday that the conflict with Iran will conclude "very soon," during a campaign rally in South Carolina. He strongly criticized the nuclear deal signed under former President Barack Obama, asserting it paved the way for Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon. Trump declared that Iran's uranium enrichment capabilities have been destroyed and that the nation has been defeated militarily and economically. He emphasized that Iran will "never" possess nuclear weapons, a situation he described as a "ticking time bomb" given the Iranian regime's perceived irrationality.
Trump indicated that while the U.S. could withdraw immediately, they are focused on ensuring the "achievements will last a long time." He praised the U.S. military's effectiveness.
These remarks follow reports from The New York Times detailing joint operational plans between the U.S. military and the IDF to renew extensive strikes in Iran, expected after the U.S. midterm elections. Sources indicated that Israel and the U.S. were on the verge of a broad attack earlier this month, with both air forces on high alert. However, President Trump made a last-minute decision to postpone the operation.
The current plans developed by Washington and Jerusalem involve targeted strikes on critical Iranian infrastructure, including nuclear facilities, national energy infrastructure, and strategic storage sites for missiles and drones.
