|June 21, 2025
US President Donald Trump is expected to make a decision about whether to take direct action against Iran in the next two weeks, the White House said.
White Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters at a briefing here on Thursday (local time) that she had a message directly from Trump in response to speculation about whether he would get directly involved in the conflict between Iran and Israel.
"Based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks," the White House press secretary quoted Mr. Trump as saying.
