Trump is done bombing Iran for now, but he’s not backing down. The Wall Street Journal just revealed what he’s preparing to do instead

President Donald Trump has made it clear that he’s not interested in peace talks with Iran right now. After suddenly ordering his envoys not to attend a second round of peace talks in Islamabad, Trump has now shown his intentions clearly. According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump has told his national security officials to prepare for a long blockade of Iran’s ports to force Tehran to give up its nuclear program.

Trump’s decision comes after several failed peace talks between Iran and the US. The latest round of talks was supposed to happen in Islamabad, but Trump canceled them at the last minute. Iranian state-run media said that direct talks were never planned.
