Clear message to Israel was sent by US President Donald Trump who expressed his opposition to a possible attack on Iran.
As Donald Trump pointed out, Israel is likely to launch an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities and said this may not happen if Tehran is “back” in negotiations with the US for the nuclear program.
Asked by reporters about the possible Israeli attack, Trump replied: “I do not want to say it is immediate, but it seems to be something that could well happen,” but asked Israel to avoid any military action.
At the same time he expressed his optimism that talks with Iran about his nuclear program are at an advanced stage. “We are relatively close to a pretty good deal. I don’t want to intervene, because I think this will shake everything in the air. “
He also made it clear that his goal remains to avoid an armed conflict. “I would like to avoid the conflict,” he said, calling on Tehran to proceed with greater concessions to reach an agreement in the nuclear.
“Iran should negotiate a little harder, which means it should give us something that is not willing to give at the moment,” Donald Trump argued.
