Trump posted today (June 15) and said: "The United States is not related to the attack on Iran by Israel. If we are attacked by Iran in any form, the armed forces of the United States will respond with an unprecedented scale. However, we can easily reach an agreement between Iran and Israel to end this bloody conflict!"
Previously, Trump had admitted that the US was aware that Israel would attack Iran, and also mentioned that Israel used American weapons in the attack, and would use more in the future, with the next attack being "even more cruel." These statements contradict his current claim that the US has no relation to the attack on Iran by Israel, making it seem like he is deliberately distancing the US from this event to avoid Iran directing all its anger at the US, reducing the risk of the US being drawn into a large-scale conflict.
Trump's claim that the US armed forces will fully respond to any attack from Iran is a deterrent to Iran, warning it not to take action against the US lightly, to protect American interests and military presence in the region. On the 14th, the Fars Communications Agency of Iran reported, citing senior Iranian military officials, that Iran will continue to strike Israel, and the scope of targets will expand in the coming days, including US military bases in the region.
At the same time, Trump's proposal to easily reach an agreement between Iran and Israel is more of a political gesture, showing that the US still wants to play a key role in Middle Eastern issues and maintain control.
