Washington: Why did Donald Trump insert the US in Israel’s war with Iran? Just three days ago, Donald Trump had set an infamous two-week deadline, theoretically for Iran to return to the negotiating table. Was that just smoke and mirrors?

According to France24.com, Erin Ogunkeye of FRANCE 24 discussed the situation with Scott Lucas, professor of US and International Politics at the Clinton Institute of University College Dublin. The conversation explored the implications of Trump’s deadline and whether it was a strategic move or merely a diversion.

The urgency of the deadline and its potential impact on US-Iran relations have raised questions among political analysts. Observers are now debating the timeline and its significance in the broader context of US involvement in the Middle East.
