[60604] The US administration is exerting unprecedented pressure on Iran
Senior officials in the Trump administration declare that they will not allow Iran to exploit US internal politics and emphasize that international consensus has been reached to prevent the militarization of the Strait of Hormuz.
The US administration shifts gears against Iran: Tough foreign policy and mobilization of international support
The Trump administration is presenting a firm and uncompromising line against Iran, as US Secretary of State Marco Rubio clarifies that the US will not allow Tehran to "use our internal politics to pressure him into reaching a bad deal," according to Amir Tsarfati. This channel, identified with clear pro-Israeli positions, emphasizes the administration's approach which views Iranian nuclear armament as an unprecedented global threat.
Additionally, according to Amir Tsarfati, a significant diplomatic breakthrough has been reached with China. President Xi Jinping has reached a full agreement with President Trump regarding the prohibition of the militarization of the Strait of Hormuz and preventing the collection of "Iranian fees" in this vital passage. Washington is currently working at the UN to pass a formal resolution on the matter, while expecting Chinese support.
On the other hand, Middle East Spectator, a channel that often presents a critical line toward US and Israeli policy and is more sympathetic to the Iranian leadership, quotes President Trump as saying: "I will not be patient much longer. They should make a deal, any sane person would do it. But maybe they are crazy".
In concluding his remarks, Secretary of State Rubio clarified that the current US administration is not satisfied with rhetoric, but is acting practically to prevent Iran's nuclear capability, unlike previous approaches, as noted by Amir Tsarfati. The tension between the parties is at its peak, with each side waiting for the other's next move.
