President Donald Trump has once again reversed course and called off planned airstrikes on Iran just hours after he threatened to escalate the current wave of American attacks on Iran and potentially dispatch ground troops to seize the country’s main oil export facility.
Writing on Truth Social Thursday afternoon, Trump said: “Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, canceled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening.”
