In a Sunday morning analysis, Channel 14 journalist Noam Amir argued that President Trump has reversed his stance on Iran, folding under pressure from rising oil prices and thanking Tehran for 'taking him off the tree.' Amir described the shift as a return to the situation of two months ago, before the recent escalation.
The analysis from Noam Amir (Channel 14) comes amid a volatile period in US-Iran relations. As The Zioneer has reported, President Trump has oscillated between military strikes and diplomatic overtures, with oil prices serving as a key driver. In late July, Trump stated that Iran 'didn't behave' after an oil price drop, prompting renewed attacks, but later said Tehran was 'behaving properly.' The current assessment by Amir suggests a further reversal, with Trump now perceived as conceding ground. The broader context includes the ongoing 'Islamabad Agreement' framework and tensions between Washington and Jerusalem over the nuclear file.
