Trump to decide on US action in Israel-Iran conflict within two weeks, White House says
- On June 20, 2025, President Donald Trump stated he would announce within the next fourteen days his decision on U.S. military involvement in the intensifying conflict between Israel and Iran.
- The decision follows intense Israeli airstrikes last Friday targeting Iran’s nuclear and military sites and Iranian missile and drone attacks on Israel that killed at least 24 people.

- Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi plans to meet European counterparts in Geneva, while the conflict’s trajectory depends on Trump's forthcoming decision amid ongoing diplomatic uncertainty.
