Trump says new strikes against Iran "limited," Bessent says Iranian economy months from collapse

President Trump described the recent U.S. strikes against Iran as limited, emphasizing that conventional military actions are sufficient. He explicitly ruled out the use of nuclear weapons in the conflict. Meanwhile, Bessent noted that the Iranian economy is months away from collapse due to the ongoing impact of U.S. sanctions. While the decision to avoid nuclear options may open diplomatic paths, regional tensions remain unresolved, which continues to risk potential future military escalations in the area.
