Washington (USA), 17 Sept. (LaPresse) – Donald Trump is facing a crucial moment regarding the war with Iran. The US president himself told Axios: “I have an important decision to make. Should I annihilate them [the Iranian regime] or not? It’s an important decision. With me, anything is possible.” Axios points out that Trump’s statement comes on the eve of a meeting scheduled for Tuesday with the leaders of six Gulf states, on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York. The meeting could determine the next phase of the war, including the choice between a new diplomatic attempt and the escalation of military action. Trump has made it clear that he intends to use the UN meeting to hear directly from regional allies their views on the next steps in the conflict. “I want to understand where they stand and how things are progressing. We have protected them a great deal,” said the president.
