US President Donald Trump reacted to a Wall Street Journal report claiming he privately approved attack plans for Iran but delayed a final go-ahead in hopes Iran would abandon its nuclear programme.
Taking to the social media platform — Truth Social, Trump said: “The Wall Street Journal has No Idea what my thoughts are concerning Iran!”
As of yesterday, Trump said he was still unsure about authorising a strike, Al Jazeera reported.
“We’ll see what happens. I’ve been asked about it by everybody, but I haven’t made a decision,” he told reporters.
Earlier, senior US officials are preparing for the possibility of a strike on Iran in the coming days, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The report, citing the people, noted that the situation is still evolving and could change.
Some of the people, according to Bloomberg, pointed to potential plans for a weekend strike.
Speaking to reporters earlier on Wednesday outside the White House, Trump declined to say if he had made any decision on whether to join Israel’s campaign.
