Washington: (RightNow) US Vice President JD Vance states that resolving the conflict with Iran requires diplomacy, not military action. In a podcast interview, he criticized opponents of negotiations with Iran for lacking an effective plan.

JD Vance refuted President Donald Trump’s statement, clarifying that the US will not deploy ground troops to change Iran’s government. He emphasized that it is up to the Iranian people to decide on any changes in their system.

He mentioned that the US prioritizes keeping the Strait of Hormuz open and ensuring global oil and gas supply. Targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities was a short-term goal.

JD Vance revealed that some elements of the Israeli government have campaigned to influence the US against the Iran deal. He assured that American interests will remain a top priority.

It is noteworthy that an American newspaper claimed President Trump considered deploying ground troops in Iran. This statement was attributed to US officials.
