After the weak Iranian retaliation, the American president invites Tehran and Jerusalem to promote peace in the region
The quiet after the storm? Donald Trump intervened after Iranian retaliation, which had in the sights two US bases in the Middle East. And, on the occasion, the American president showed himself willing to tend an olive twig to Tehran.
“Iran has officially responded to our destruction of their nuclear plants with a very weak reaction, as we expected, and that we contrasted in a very effective way,” he said on Truth. “I want to thank Iran for warning us promptly, which has allowed not to lose human lives and not to hurt anyone. Perhaps Iran can now proceed towards peace and harmony in the region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same, “added the American president.
A few hours before this post, the Khomeinist regime had implemented an attack in retaliation to the American military operation which, on Saturday, had hit three Iranian nuclear sites: an attack – that of Tehran – which had however shown himself rather bland. Not only that. The New York Times He had also revealed that, In launching the missiles against the American base in Qatar, the Ayatollah had even coordinated in advance with the government of Doha. Not only that. As evidenced by Trump himself, Axios He had revealed that the Americans had been warned in advance. On the other hand, the Khomeinist regime needed to save the face. But at the same time he could not afford a retaliation in a great style without attracting a very hard retal to be on the part of the Trump administration. Hence the need for an offensive, the Iranian one, which was essentially symbolic and agreed de facto.
From what you can understand, With Saturday’s attack, the American president did not aim at a change of regime but to kneel Tehran on his knees to force her to return to the negotiation tablemaking them abandon its ambitions regarding the enrichment of uranium. On the other hand, we do not forget that Trump had given the green light to the Israeli attacks of 13 June after the expiry of the ultimatum negotiation that he himself had imposed on the Ayatollah in nuclear negotiations. Despite therefore, he had started to caress the idea of a Change regime Sunday evening, the new developments suggest that this is not Trump’s real goal.
However, it will first be necessary to see if the negotiations between Americans and Iranians will leave. And, if, if the Iranians will meet Washington’s requests. However, regardless of what will happen, Trump’s strategy is clear. The American president has transmitted a crystal clear message to the Ayatollah in fact: you don’t joke with me, if you know, you will pay it. Peace, has let the tenant of the White House understand, must be based reactantly on the projection of the force. And the United States are not willing to let themselves be made fun of.
The question is now: will Israel continue to coordinate with Washington on this dossier, accepting a recovery of the dialogue between Washington and Tehran? Benjamin Netanyahu could theoretically get misaligned, it’s true. But the Israeli premier also knows he has not had a great convenience to put himself against the White House. The goal of Trump is, moreover, twofold: definitively avoid an Iran with the atomic bomb and, at the same time, carve out the role of great peacemaker of the Middle East, re -establishing the Abraham agreements.
