Ex-U.S. Defense Secretary on Trump's Iran Strategies
Former U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta warned that the war between the United States and Iran could last an additional six months, with no clear signs of it ending soon. He explained that the conflict has entered its seventh month and is on the verge of evolving into a prolonged struggle in the Middle East, with threats of further escalation and slipping into a failed war—especially in light of internal disruptions within the Department of Defense, the tense international environment, and Washington's declining ability to project military influence in the region. Panetta suggested that the most likely options are continuing the fighting without negotiations or de-escalation, or controlling the Strait of Hormuz to prevent Iran from disrupting global trade movements.
