Jerusalem, Israel – The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation reported that U.S. President Donald Trump has decided to postpone what it described as the “deadline” for launching a large-scale military strike against Iran, aiming to grant Tehran a renewed opportunity to return to the negotiating table amid ongoing diplomatic efforts.
This move reflects Washington’s desire to test all diplomatic avenues before resorting to sweeping escalatory measures.
Postponing the Military Option and Prioritizing Diplomacy
The Israeli broadcaster explained that the U.S. decision followed a careful review of recent developments in communication channels with Iran, with Washington opting to prioritize diplomacy temporarily.
This direction highlights the White House’s intent to intend to exhaust potential avenues for mutual understandings with Tehran, despite persistent core disagreements over several key files.
A New Window for Talks and Cautious Regional Monitoring
According to the report, the U.S. administration seeks through this postponement to avert a military escalation that could drag the broader region into a comprehensive conflict.
Nonetheless, reports noted that the decision does not mean ruling out the military option altogether, but rather delaying it temporarily pending the outcomes of ongoing contacts, while Israel closely monitors the situation amid deep skepticism over the prospects of a final settlement.إ
