Responding to Gulf Mediation: US Administration Postpones Military Strike on Iran

The US President announced on Monday the postponement of a planned military strike against Iran, explaining that the decision came in response to direct requests from prominent Gulf state leaders. The US administration emphasized that the delay aims to allow for a serious negotiation process that could lead to a comprehensive regional agreement ensuring Tehran does not acquire nuclear weapons. Despite issuing directives to the military command to halt the attack for now, Washington stressed that its forces remain on high alert to execute large-scale operations should negotiations falter or diplomatic efforts fail.
