SECURITY: NYP: Trump-'We're Nowhere Near' Ordering Ground Troops In Iran
Mar-09 15:24
The New York Post reports that US President Donald Trump told the outlet that he is "nowhere near" the point of deploying US ground troops to Iran. Regarding speculation that US special forces could be deployed to safeguard fissile material at the Isfahan nuclear enrichment facility, Trump said, “We haven’t made any decision on that. We’re nowhere near it.”
- Needless to say, the deployment of any US ground troops would mark a major escalation in the conflict and carry risks of the war turning into a much more protracted affair, and of significantly damaging the president's standing domestically should US military casualties increase. The counter to this being, the prospect of US and Israeli troops on the ground could steer Iran towards major concessions to avoid ground operations that could presage full regime change.
- Regarding the appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei as Iran's next supreme leader, Trump said to the Post, “Not going to tell you. I’m not happy with him.” He did not repeat earlier threats to eliminate any successor to the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was chosen without Trump's personal input.
- MNI's latest US Daily Brief carries further analysis of the reports surrounding the prospect of US and/or Israeli troops being deployed on the ground (see MNI POLITICAL RISK - Iran War Weighs On Global Economy)
