- The WSJ reported on the call of advisers to Trump to withdraw the United States from the conflict with Iran
Advisers to the American leader Donald Trump are afraid of a negative political reaction and recommend that the US president withdraw from the conflict with Iran. This was reported on March 9 by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), citing sources.
"Some of [Trump's] advisers have privately urged him to seek a way out of the conflict amid a sharp rise in oil prices and fears that a protracted conflict could provoke a political backlash," the publication says.
The newspaper's interlocutors also report that Trump was surprised by Iran's refusal to surrender. In addition, the American leader's entourage plans to draw up a plan for the US withdrawal from the conflict. According to the publication, Washington's protracted operation could lead to serious problems.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on the same day that the goal of the United States mission in Iran is to destroy Tehran's ability to launch missiles. He stressed that the operation is carried out with "overwhelming force and high precision." In addition, the diplomat called the Iranian government a terrorist regime.
The New York Times (NYT) newspaper, in turn, reported that Iran was better prepared for military action than the Trump administration expected. In addition, representatives of the US administration have repeatedly warned about the likelihood of new losses among the United States military.
