In an interview with Fox News on Monday, Trump expressed readiness for a deal with Iran to prevent it from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
Trump had said: “Everyone assumes that Israel, with our support or approval, will go in and bomb the hell out of them. I would prefer that not to happen.”
This comes as the spokesperson of Iranian President, Masoud Pezeshkian, Mohajerani, disclosed that Tehran has an “active plan” to counter Trump’s “maximum pressure” campaign.
Recall that Mohajerani had warned that Trump’s Maximum Pressure Campaign “will get nowhere.”
Last week, Trump had vowed to restore the “maximum pressure” campaign that he used against Iran during his first tenure.
