US President Donald Trump has said he is holding off a military attack on Iran planned for Tuesday at the request of Gulf states as 'serious negotiations are now taking place.' In a post on Truth Social, he stated he had been asked to do so by the leaders of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. Trump noted that a deal might be struck that would be 'very acceptable' to the US, pledging that there would be 'NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN!' However, he warned that the US would be ready to 'go forward with a full, large scale assault of Iran, on a moment's notice' if an acceptable deal is not reached. This announcement comes amid substantial declines in Trump's approval ratings, with polls indicating that 64% of voters believe the war against Iran is misguided. The situation is precarious, as Iran continues to maintain significant military capabilities, which could escalate tensions further if not managed carefully.
