U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that any potential future strike on Iran would be nearly five times larger than the first operation. Speaking in an interview with C-SPAN television, Trump highlighted the severe magnitude of any possible military action.
Trump explained that his reason for maintaining his current policy toward Tehran is based on consultations with regional partners who prefer diplomatic momentum rather than an immediate fresh strike.
He specifically referenced his White House meeting with Qatar's prime minister and ongoing discussions with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Kuwait, noting these regional neighbors have faced intense aggression.
According to Trump, leaders in these regional states prefer resolving matters through the existing diplomatic approach, prompting him to support and continue that identical path.
When asked about the timeline for concluding the conflict, the U.S. president remarked that Washington could finish the effort very rapidly or allow it to conclude across an extended duration.
Trump concluded by noting that Tehran appears interested in reaching an agreement, adding that time will reveal whether an official deal can ultimately materialize.
