Trump Reportedly Told UAE President an Iran Strike Could Come Within Days

U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly told United Arab Emirates President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan during a telephone conversation in recent days that an attack on Iran could take place within days. The account, attributed to several American officials familiar with the conversation, put the possible timing at roughly 48 hours after the call. The UAE president subsequently passed the contents of the conversation and information from it to Tehran, according to the report. The account linked that transmission to a postponement of the prospective strike in favor of negotiations with Iran. Vice President JD Vance is among the administration officials reportedly intensifying efforts to reach an agreement with Iran. The report also cited Israeli assessments that Trump currently wants Vance to exhaust the diplomatic effort, potentially delaying the attack under consideration. Those assessments nevertheless held that a U.S. attack could still take place.
