  • Donald Trump decided to directly involve the United States in the military conflict between Israel and Iran by attacking Persian nuclear facilities.
  • These attacks were hailed as a “spectacular success” by Trump, who also warned Tehran of greater future attacks if they don't agree to make peace.
  • The repercussions of these attacks could be severe, including possible retaliation from Iran that could affect U.S. bases in the region and Gulf allied countries.
  • Israel, under the leadership of Benjamin Netanyahu, is the main beneficiary of this situation, having managed to draw the United States openly into the conflict.
  • Trump’s decision to intervene could cause inhouse divisions and contradicts his electoral promises to avoid external military conflicts.
  • The attack appears to be an attempt to force Iran back to the negotiation table, but has sidelined Europe in the process.

Conclusion: Trump's decision to intervene in the conflict between Israel and Iran has created a new scenario of uncertainty in Middle Eastern geopolitics, with potential repercussions that extend beyond the region.
