US Vice President Vance Discusses Potential Military Action Against Iran
US Vice President Vance stated that while a military strike on Iran is one of the options considered by President Trump, he does not believe it will lead to a prolonged war. Vance is unsure of Trump's decision but mentioned that the possible choices include preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons through military action or resolving the issue through diplomatic means. If Trump chooses a new round of strikes, which could be more comprehensive than the bombing in June last year, Vance is confident that it will not escalate into a conflict he criticizes. Vance emphasized that the objectives of the actions in Iran last year and in Venezuela this January were clear, and he prefers a diplomatic solution, though this also depends on Iran's behavior.
