WASHINGTON, Nov 10 – US President Donald Trump says further military action against Iran does not appear necessary at this stage. However, he warned that Washington remains ready to respond if the situation changes.
Trump made the remarks while speaking to reporters at the White House on Monday.
He said the United States remained prepared to take action if needed.
“At this point, taking the military action doesn’t seem to be a very necessary thing — but we’re locked and loaded, ready to go for any reason,” he said.
Trump Says Middle East Security Remains Protected
Trump also claimed that Israel and the wider Middle East were protected from what he described as the Iranian threat.
He suggested that the conflict could be moving towards an end.
“We’re seeing momentum toward the end of this conflict. I think it’s going to be ending fairly soon,” he said.
His comments signal a more cautious position on further military action, although he did not rule out a possible response.
US Keeps Military Options Open
The president’s remarks indicate that Washington wants to avoid further military action for now.
Nevertheless, his warning that US forces remain ready to act shows that the administration has not closed the door on a military response.
The latest comments come amid continuing tensions involving Iran, Israel and other countries in the Middle East.
Trump did not provide further details about what developments could prompt the United States to take military action.
