Washington, DC – A US media report revealed that President Donald Trump is considering options that include providing indirect support to armed groups inside Iran. This move could represent a dangerous shift in the confrontation between Washington and Tehran.
According to the report, circles within the US administration are discussing tools of “unconventional pressure.” This includes expanding intelligence and logistical support to groups opposed to the Iranian regime. This comes as part of a strategy aimed at weakening Iran’s internal capabilities. This strategy also seeks to reduce Tehran’s regional influence.
The report indicated that this proposal is still under consideration, amid divisions within decision-making institutions regarding its potential repercussions, particularly concerning the Iranian reaction and the possibility of the conflict widening in the Middle East.
Observers believe that such an option, if adopted, could push the region into a new phase of indirect confrontation. The confrontation could also extend beyond limited military strikes to include internal conflicts, which would exacerbate instability.
Meanwhile, the White House has not issued an official comment on the report. International calls are mounting for de-escalation and a return to diplomacy before the situation spirals into a broader confrontation.
