President Donald Trump stated that the United States is intentionally maintaining a low-profile approach regarding tensions with Iran. He indicated that the administration is prioritizing economic pressure as the primary tool to influence Tehran, noting that the country is currently struggling with significant inflation and a lack of funds to pay its military forces.

While the U.S. monitors the situation, reports from the office of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei suggest that he has held a meeting with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. The U.S. strategy remains focused on allowing existing economic sanctions to impact Iran's internal stability rather than pursuing immediate military escalation.
