President Donald Trump said in an interview with Axios that he continues to weigh the option of resuming military strikes on Iran, responding to a direct question on the subject by saying he is "always thinking about it."
The remark leaves open the possibility of further US military action against Iran without committing to any specific timeline or trigger, consistent with the ambiguous posture the administration has maintained through a period of elevated tension with Tehran.
Trump's comment came as part of a broader set of exchanges between American and Iranian officials in recent days, some of which have referenced both the potential for renewed conflict and the possibility of new negotiations.
Officials in his administration, including the US ambassador to the United Nations, have echoed the message that all options remain on the table regarding Iran, reinforcing the sense that Washington is not ruling out further military measures even as diplomatic channels are also being discussed.
The comments add to an already tense backdrop between the two countries, with neither side offering a clear public roadmap for what would come next, whether toward escalation or toward talks.
