The White House has confirmed that US President Donald Trump has made a crucial decision regarding Iran, stating that no one influenced him to refrain from launching a military attack on the country. During a press briefing at the White House, a journalist asked Trump if Israeli and Arab officials had convinced him to hold back on a potential attack on Iran. Trump responded, saying that no one had convinced him, and that he made the decision on his own.
The US President went on to explain that the recent events in Iran, where hundreds were reportedly set to be executed, had a significant impact on his decision. However, it was revealed that Iran had actually suspended the executions just hours before Trump’s announcement. Trump later took to his social media platform, Truth Social, to express his gratitude to Iran for halting the executions, stating that he appreciates the country’s decision to spare the lives of those who were set to be executed.
Recent reports suggested that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had requested Trump to delay a potential military strike on Iran. However, Trump has denied this, stating that he made the decision on his own. The White House has also confirmed that no external pressure was brought to bear on Trump to change his mind on the Iran issue.
The US President’s decision has been met with mixed reactions from world leaders, with some welcoming the move and others expressing disappointment. The situation remains uncertain, with many waiting to see how events in Iran will unfold in the coming days.
In related news, the Iranian government has announced that internet services have been restored in the country, following a period of disruption. The move comes as the country continues to face widespread protests and unrest.
Meanwhile, Russian officials have stated that the US and Russia have not engaged in any direct talks regarding Afghanistan. The US has also warned Canada against allowing Chinese electric vehicles to be imported, citing concerns over national security.
In other news, a massive fire has broken out in a three-story building in the city of Karachi, Pakistan, with over a thousand shops and businesses affected. The cause of the fire is still unknown, but officials have stated that the damage will be assessed once the blaze is extinguished.
