イラン、中ロと連携強化模索か 米中間選挙後を警戒、高官がプーチン氏らと協議

当局者によれば、大規模攻撃再開の意図があると受け取られないために、この作戦を秘密裏に実施してきたという。

一部の米メディアは、3日の中間選挙後に米軍がイランへの大規模攻撃を再開する計画を策定したと報じていた。外交交渉で譲歩を引き出すことを目的にし、エネルギーインフラや核施設が標的に含まれているとされる。

ただ、トランプ大統領は2日、ニュースサイト「アクシオス」のインタビューで、大規模攻撃を再開するかどうかの決断は「急いでいない」と語った。また、トランプ氏は同日、選挙後の攻撃を検討しているかと記者団から問われ、「ノー」と答えた。
