Trump Weighs Iran Strike Decision Amid Israel Conflict

News summary

President Donald Trump has been briefed on the risks and benefits of striking Iran's Fordo nuclear site and views disabling it as necessary to prevent Iran from quickly producing nuclear weapons. Although he has approved attack plans, Trump has not yet made a final decision and intends to decide within the next two weeks, depending in part on the prospects for negotiations with Iran. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasized the president's interest in a diplomatic solution but underscored that any agreement must prohibit uranium enrichment and eliminate Iran's nuclear weapon capability. Trump’s uncertainty has sparked debate within the Republican Party and criticism from Democrats, who question the credibility of his repeated deadlines. Congressional Democrats and Republicans are unusually united in urging the president to avoid military involvement in the Middle East conflict. Meanwhile, the logistics and military preparations for a potential strike remain unclear as Trump continues to weigh his options amid ongoing U.S.-Iran talks.
