The White House announced on June 19, 2025, that President Trump will "decide within the next two weeks" whether the U.S. will directly intervene in the escalating Israel–Iran conflict . Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasized a “substantial chance of negotiations” and highlighted Iran's nuclear weapon potential pending a directive from Supreme Leader Khamenei . Diplomacy via talks in Geneva continues with European officials and Iran’s Foreign Minister Araghchi . However, military options—such as strikes on Iran’s underground Fordow facility—remain on the table, amid rising regional pressure following recent missile exchanges and civilian casualties.
