U.S. Sees Strategic Opportunity in Israel’s Strikes on Iran for Nuclear Talks
Experts suggest that Israel’s targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites may create a strategic opportunity for the U.S. to push for a nuclear deal with Tehran, potentially through a combination of military pressure and diplomatic efforts. The strikes, which were coordinated with U.S. defense cooperation, are seen as a way to weaken Iran’s position and prompt a return to negotiations.
International experts have highlighted the potential for the Trump administration to use the current circumstances to advance nuclear talks. Israel’s precision strike on Iranian nuclear and military infrastructure may open a rare strategic window for the U.S. to pressure Tehran toward a nuclear agreement that could not have been achieved through diplomacy alone. The Israeli military confirmed that the operation was carried out by its forces, but in coordination with the United States. Though U.S. troops did not participate in the attack, defense cooperation continued throughout the strike. During Iran’s retaliation on Friday, U.S. forces helped intercept Iranian missile attacks on Tel Aviv, demonstrating a strong partnership in the face of regional tensions.
A IDF official stated that the operation was executed by Israel, but with close coordination between the American and Israeli sides.
