US President Trump and Iran Conflict with Post-Election Developments

US President Donald Trump raised the possibility of a re-escalation of the conflict with Iran by announcing on Thursday, following a meeting with his national security team, that he will soon make a decision on restarting a large-scale war. Trump's remarks came after Republicans suffered a defeat in the midterm elections.

US President Donald Trump stated that potential strikes are conditional on preventing Iran's nuclear program from regaining capacity. It is stated that Trump is evaluating three options: launching new strikes, further squeezing the Iranian administration economically, or reaching an agreement involving significant American concessions.
