This is what Donald Trump said on the platform Truth Social:
\n\u201cWe are getting very close to achieving our objectives as we consider winding down our major military efforts in the Middle East with respect to the terrorist regime in Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a final paragraph, he added:
\n\u201cOther countries that use the Strait of Hormuz will have to guard and secure it, as necessary \u2014 the United States does not use it!\u201d<\/p>\n
Have we understood the contradiction Trump has fallen into? On the one hand, he has repeatedly stated that they have achieved their objectives in the aggression against Iran; on the other hand, he offers a different statement like the one above: \u201cThey are getting very close to achieving their objectives,\u201d and then concludes by saying that responsibility for securing the Strait of Hormuz does not lie with his military forces but with the countries that use the strait, even though Washington has historically considered it a strategic global passage.<\/p>\n
How can we interpret this inconsistency in his statements? Let us recall his remarks since the beginning of the aggression: \u201cWe will send ground troops,\u201d then \u201cWe will not send ground troops,\u201d \u201cWe will support the Kurds of Iran,\u201d then \u201cWe have not decided whether we should use the opposition minorities card.\u201d I do not know whether anyone reviews Trump\u2019s statements in the White House, but what we read daily suggests that the American leader still appears uncertain about the objectives of the aggression and how to bring it to an end. This creates confusion among his traditional allies and the countries of the Persian Gulf region. As for the position of the U.S. military, it aligns publicly with its president while criticizing some steps privately\u2014and all of this is reassuring to no one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
