President Donald Trump is expected to make a final decision on whether the United States will engage in military action against Iran within the next two weeks, according to a statement from White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
Leavitt delivered the update during a press briefing, quoting the president directly:
“Based on the fact that there is a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks,” the president said.
The statement comes amid rising tensions between the U.S. and Iran, and follows weeks of speculation about possible military involvement in response to regional developments.
The White House emphasized that diplomatic options remain on the table, but has not ruled out a military response should negotiations fail or the situation escalate.
As of now, no formal timeline for talks with Tehran has been confirmed.
