The US and Israel, although allies, do not pursue completely the same goals in terms of actions against Iran. It is important to monitor the reactions of the population to see to what extent these political statements that the two countries make have real support. Donald Trump looks at international relations through the prism of a businessman, but also towards the internal problems and the US economy. His policy is aimed at fulfilling the promises to the American society for economic recovery. Although the US is a major producer of oil and gas, prices are formed on international markets and their rise has an impact on the American economy. This was announced to Lili Marinkova in the studio „FACT“ and the program „Conversation“ by diplomat Angel Obretsov.
„On the other hand, we are observing the movement of American military forces towards the region – both naval and air. This suggests that the president has specific intentions to use them. Trump is a businessman and as such would hardly invest so many resources in deploying these forces without being prepared to use them“, the guest added.
„At the same time, there is some ambiguity and speculation about the next steps in the negotiations. There is talk of possible maneuvers and attempts to circumvent a direct escalation between the US and Iran. At this stage, however, real negotiations are not taking place – there are American proposals, as well as counterproposals from Iran, but there is no concrete result. Currently, the mediator in the negotiations between the US and Iran is Pakistan“, the guest added.
