Military action can be resumed – America

America has also made it clear that military action can be resumed if needed. The White House has not made any official detailed comment on this decision, but White House Communications Director Steven Cheung said that President Trump has always been in favor of diplomatic solutions. He also said that if Iran increases activities in the Strait of Hormuz or takes action against America’s allies, all military options will remain open.

A big war may break out – Trump

According to the report, Trump believed that the current level of military action has reached its effective limit and further progress could lead to a major war. Sources said that the President wanted to give more opportunities for talks, but also wanted to maintain the option that if talks fail, military action could be started again in a short time. During a conversation with reporters on Friday, Trump said that America is fully prepared, but he believes that making a deal with Iran would be a more sensible path. He said that talks are going on between America and Iran and he feels that with time Iran is also becoming more serious about talks.

American Defense System

A major reason behind this decision is said to be the growing concern within the American defense system. According to the New York Times report, senior military officials had warned that if the campaign was extended further, there could be huge pressure on America’s missile defense system. The report says that Patriot interceptor missiles and other defense systems are being used rapidly. If the conflict continues for a long time, the security of American troops, military bases and allied countries deployed in the Middle East may be affected. General Dan Kane, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, informed Trump that the Army is capable of launching major attacks, but this could have a serious impact on the missile defense stockpile. According to the report, the US has already used more than 1,200 Patriot interceptor missiles in recent months, increasing the pressure on defense reserves.
