Trump Rules Out US Strike on Iran for Now

timesnownews.com —

President Donald Trump ruled out a US strike on Iran for Sunday, stating "there will not be a strike today" as he departed the White House for Michigan, amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran. Trump's statement follows his Saturday remarks that fresh strikes could occur as soon as "tomorrow" or that a "nice big beautiful agreement" could be reached, insisting any deal must permanently prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. He did not clarify whether military action could resume in the coming days. The conflict began with a US-Israel joint airstrike on Iran on February 28, killing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, leading to retaliatory strikes and a collapsed June ceasefire. The prolonged war has raised global oil and gas prices, with mediators seeking to resume formal talks.
