Donald Trump stated on Truth Social on Saturday that the potential military action hinges on the swift establishment of an agreement. He asserted that the U.S. military is prepared to strike with full force, but noted that Iran and other regional nations have urged Washington to refrain from attacking.
This request stemmed from the fact that “essential provisions of the agreement” had reportedly been reached. According to Trump, the proposed accord would encompass the full reopening of the Hormuz Strait and the definitive cessation of Iran’s nuclear threat. He further indicated that Israel would also commit to adhering to the terms of the agreement.
The context of these statements followed reports detailing that two tankers had reversed course within the Hormuz Strait. In related developments, the U.S. was reportedly preparing for new strikes, and Kuwait had reported instances of drone attacks.
Amid heightened tensions, the U.S. embassy in several Middle Eastern capitals issued warnings advising American citizens to prepare for potential departures. Trump’s commentary emphasized that the path forward, particularly concerning Iran, was contingent upon reaching a comprehensive agreement.
