The regional leaders asked him “to hold off on our planned Military attack of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which was scheduled for tomorrow, in that serious negotiations are now taking place, and that, in their opinion, as Great Leaders and Allies, a Deal will be made, which will be very acceptable to the United States of America, as well as all Countries in the Middle East, and beyond,” Trump wrote in a lengthy post on his social media platform.
The deal, Trump wrote, will include “no nuclear weapons for Iran.” The president did not mention what the provisions would look like for the Strait of Hormuz.
While the attack will not be carried out Tuesday, Trump said he instructed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Daniel Caine “to be prepared to go forward with a full, large scale assault of Iran, on a moment’s notice, in the event that an acceptable Deal is not reached.”
