President Donald Trump has said he will make a decision in the coming two weeks on whether the United States will strike Iran, citing a possibility of upcoming negotiations.
President Donald Trump is weighing U.S. military involvement in the ongoing Israel–Iran conflict, according to a statement from the White House on Thursday.
The decision is expected within the next two weeks, a period during which the likelihood of negotiations with Iran may become clearer.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters that Trump’s timeline is influenced by diplomatic signals coming from Tehran. “Based on the fact that there’s a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks,” she quoted the president as saying.
Trump has been under pressure to respond after days of escalating military activity between Israel and Iran. While he has not ruled out a military strike, his latest remarks suggest the U.S. may pause to assess whether diplomacy is still an option.
The announcement comes amid continued air strikes, regional instability, and growing international concern over the direction of the conflict.
