JD Vance clarifies: Trump's policy toward Iran is focused on the nuclear program and not on regime change
As part of the discussions on the future of U.S. foreign policy, JD Vance clarified that Trump does not intend to intervene in Iran's internal leadership. According to the report on News from the Field on Telegram (a channel that displays a positive approach toward Trump), Vance emphasized that "Trump never said that his goal is to make Reza Pahlavi the new leader of Iran."
Vance explained that the former president's position is that an uprising of the Iranian people against their regime is "their business" and between them and their government. The central message conveyed is that the strategic goal of an administration led by Trump, as cited in News from the Field on Telegram, is "the cessation of their nuclear program."
These remarks also resonated on 301 News Arab World (a channel with a critical orientation toward Israel and the conduct of the administration), which reported similarly on Vance's statements. The channel highlighted the distinction Vance makes between the desire of the Iranian people and the security priorities of the U.S., according to the report on Channel 301, emphasizing that ending the nuclear program is the only thing that matters to the American administration.
