US general against expanding war with Iran

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces, General Dan Caine, has stated in private conversations in recent weeks that the United States should distance itself from war with Iran, CNN reports, citing well-informed sources.

According to reports, General Caine has expressed serious concern about the current strategy, believing that the military options being considered could have the opposite effect.

According to him, it is unlikely that the US administration will achieve its objectives by relying solely on air strikes.

American media reporting indicates that Caine is not alone in this stance and that he is not the only administration official who believes that the US is currently at a critical juncture regarding the war.

Due to concerns about the further development of the situation, the general has already discussed the possibility of withdrawing or changing the approach with senior officials and key advisors to the US president.

According to CNN, he held these conversations with US Vice President JD Vance, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

These data suggest that serious debates are taking place within the highest levels of the US administration and a review is being made of how policy and military operations towards Iran should be continued, so that the United States is not drawn into an even deeper conflict without a clear exit strategy. /Telegraph
