No war! Why did Trump lower his tone?

(Source:CCTV-2 "CCTV Financial Review" January 10, 2020)

In the early morning of January 9, US President Trump delivered a national address at the White House in response to Iran’s air strikes on US military bases in Iraq. First, it was confirmed that there were no casualties in the US military, and then it was announced to impose new economic sanctions on Iran, emphasizing that Iran would not be allowed to possess nuclear weapons, and calling on all parties to reach a new agreement with Iran.

Dong Xiucheng, Professor of w88 casino of International Economics and w88, w88 casino:Give us a lot of confidence that we will not start a war! In fact, neither the United States nor Iran has the preparation or willingness to launch a full-scale war. From the United States' perspective, if the United States launches a war, it is likely to fall into a quagmire similar to the war in Afghanistan. The United States cannot afford such a situation. In addition, the United States is not well prepared for war. Judging from its existing military deployment and the current world military structure, the cost of launching a war for the United States is very high. From the Iranian side, in addition to facing the same problems as the United States, Iran has no way to compete with the United States in terms of military strength. Iran will become the biggest victim if a war starts. In addition, if a war starts and the war proceeds to a certain extent, Iran is likely to face a huge domestic crisis. For example, the current political system may face the collapse of the country. Therefore, neither country is willing to launch a frontal war.

Professor Dong Xiuchengsaid: The Iranian nuclear issue has escalated, and Trump is facing pressure from both domestic and foreign sources. Externally, the international community, including U.S. allies, die-hard supporters the United Kingdom, and the Gulf countries in the Middle East, do not support the U.S. going to war. Domestically, Trump faces tremendous opposition, including large-scale demonstrations and congressional resolutions. Therefore, under strong internal and external pressure, Trump can only lower his tone.
