According to sources, White House Press Secretary Levitt quoted Trump as telling reporters that he will decide within the next two weeks whether to intervene, based on the high possibility of negotiations with Iran in the near future. Levitt stated that Trump intends to seek a diplomatic solution with Iran, but his top priority is to ensure Iran cannot obtain nuclear weapons. Any agreement must prohibit Tehran from uranium enrichment and eliminate Iran's ability to manufacture nuclear weapons. The President is always interested in diplomatic solutions, he is a peacemaker. Therefore, if there is a diplomatic opportunity, the President will always seize it. But I must add, he is also not afraid to use force. Levitt refused to disclose whether Trump will seek congressional authorization for any strikes against Iran. She stated that Washington still believes Iran has never been closer to obtaining nuclear weapons. Levitt mentioned that Trump received a briefing on Israeli actions on Thursday, and if Iran does not agree to stop its nuclear weapons work, it will face serious consequences.
