The assassination of Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani on January 3, 2020, marked a significant turning point in the relations between the United States and Iran, leading to heightened tensions. A report from the U.S. Justice Department suggests that during Trump's election campaign, Iran allegedly sought to kill him, which is interpreted as a form of retaliation for Soleimani's death. In response to this perceived threat, Iran is working to forge alliances with Arab nations to counterbalance U.S. power. Simultaneously, Israel has intensified its military operations from Gaza to Lebanon under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has shown hope for Trump's presidency, particularly after Trump's 2017 declaration recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Iran aims to rally Arab nations against Israel, hoping to curb U.S. influence in the Middle East and strengthen its position amidst rising Chinese power. Additionally, Iran is determined to advance its nuclear program while keeping a close eye on political developments, necessitating timely actions within this intricate web of global politics.
