US President Donald Trump has outlined various scenarios for further action in Iran. "I can go all out and take over the whole thing, or end it in two or three days and say to the Iranians: "See you in a few years if you start rebuilding (your nuclear and missile programs)," he said in a telephone interview with the US news portal "Axios".

"In any case, it will take several years for them to recover from this attack," Trump said.
On Saturday morning, Israel and the United States attacked Iran. As a result, the leadership in Tehran attacked several US military bases in the region. The Arab Gulf states are jointly home to thousands of US troops. The attacks were preceded by weeks of negotiations mediated by Oman, including on Iran's nuclear program. Tangible progress was lacking until the end.
