Trump administration’s unclear stance on potential conflict with Iran

Trump cited an “imminent threat” from Iran but did not provide specifics, with officials suggesting fears of retaliatory strikes. While regime change is a topic of discussion, it remains ambiguous, with Trump indicating potential cooperation with remnants of the Iranian regime. The duration of the conflict is also uncertain, with early estimates of four weeks now expanded to a more flexible timeline.
