Trump weighs Iran response as European leaders push for diplomacy
Share this @internewscast.com


() As the conflict between Israel and Iran enters its second week, President Donald Trump is meeting with his national security team as he weighs U.S. involvement.

He has been meeting with his team regularly since his early return from the G7 summit amid the military conflict.

Sources told that there is conflicting information among intelligence agencies about how quickly Iran could develop a nuclear weapon.

The CIA has said Iran could have a nuclear weapon as soon as weeks or even days, while other intelligence agencies have said the country is still months to a year away from being able to build a nuclear weapon.

On Thursday, Trump indicated that he would have a decision on whether to strike Iran within the next two weeks, according to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

The president has suggested that he is still open to diplomacy, while also calling for “unconditional surrender” from Iran and reiterating that Iran can not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.

European diplomats are meeting with Iran’s foreign minister in Switzerland to try to de-escalate the situation, with representatives from Germany, France, Britain and the European Union.

Iran has indicated there is no room for direct talks with the U.S. as long as Israel continues to conduct strikes against the country.
