"I don't think it's an appropriate question, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One. There would have to be a very good reason. I would say if we ever did that they would be so decimated that they wouldn't be able to fight at the ground level."
"Pressed by the Guardian on whether he would send in troops to secure the enriched uranium, believed to be stored at Iranian nuclear sites that the United States bombed in Operation Midnight Hammer last year, Trump suggested that was a possibility. We haven't talked about it, Trump said. At some point, maybe we will."
"I don't want the Kurds going in Trump said. They're willing to go in, but I've told them I don't want them going in. The war's complicated enough without getting the Kurds involved."
Trump suggested that US military intervention in Iran could occur under specific conditions, particularly to secure enriched uranium at Iranian nuclear facilities. He expressed confidence that American forces would decisively defeat Iranian ground forces if deployed. However, Trump explicitly rejected using Kurdish forces from Iraq to mount an invasion of Iran, citing complications the conflict already presents. These statements followed Trump's attendance at Dover Air Force Base for a dignified transfer ceremony honoring six US service members killed during the opening phase of military operations against Iran.
