Trump says he is unlikely to order Iran attack if talks progress, CNN reports
Trump said renewed strikes are unlikely if negotiations advance, while warning U.S. forces remain ready and Iran’s missile and drone capacity has been reduced.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump said a return to war with Iran is "highly unlikely" if ongoing indirect negotiations produce progress, emphasizing diplomacy as his preferred path forward.
- Diplomatic activity across the Middle East has intensified following the recent midterm elections. On Friday, Trump called Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani to discuss de-escalation, while Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi engaged regional counterparts.
- Trump noted a third American aircraft carrier strike group recently arrived, declaring forces "fully locked and loaded." He assessed Iranian missile capacity at 10% and drone capabilities at 15% of normal levels.
- The president identified 38 Iranian bridges and power plants as potential military targets, though he stated he prefers avoiding such destruction because rebuilding infrastructure would require 10 years.
- Eight months into the stalemate, Iran faces 301% inflation amid frozen assets and oil sales restrictions. Trump repeated that new military action will most likely not be necessary if Tehran reaches a strong agreement.
