Trump Faces Key Decision on Iran War
More than six months have passed since the start of the US-Israeli war against Iran, despite Trump's expectation that it would only take a few weeks. Developments indicate that the war is not over yet, as the Trump administration has adopted a new strategy based on economic sanctions instead of direct military action, aiming to put additional pressure on Iran. Although the United States has declared that the mission is "accomplished" and that it has destroyed Iranian forces, Iran has demonstrated resilience through attacks in the Strait of Hormuz and by maintaining its economy. Despite losses amounting to approximately $270 billion, Iran has managed to adapt by selling oil at discounted prices and establishing covert networks. The costs of the US war on Iran now exceed $37.5 billion, and experts fear that ongoing conflict could weaken the readiness of the US military in other regions. Meanwhile, it seems that Trump is moving toward intensifying economic pressure rather than escalating direct military action, continuing to impose strict sanctions on Tehran. So far, the situation reflects a complex standstill, with no clear end in sight, and confirms that the war has lasted longer than Trump expected, who does not appear eager to resolve the crisis soon.
