Trump suggests possible new military strikes against Iran

US President Donald Trump affirmed on Thursday the possibility of launching fresh military strikes against Iran if an acceptable deal is not reached. Trump stated that initiating new attacks following the midterm elections remains viable without a satisfactory agreement, noting that Tehran is in a very bad situation with a collapsed economy and desires a deal, though he insists on a real one. Rejecting Iran’s latest ceasefire proposal, Trump stressed that what he dismissed a year ago will not be accepted today, adding that their offer regarding the Strait of Hormuz is simply insufficient, while highlighting Washington’s vast stockpiles of weapons for allies.
