U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Sunday that he decided against ordering new American military strikes on Iran after receiving direct input from Gulf allies, specifically naming Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The decision marks a shift in the administration's approach following escalating tensions and warnings regarding the region.
Just a day prior to this announcement, Trump had expressed growing skepticism regarding ongoing diplomatic efforts, noting he was losing faith in negotiations with Iran and warning that the U.S. military was prepared to strike heavily.
