A major military conflict is brewing in the Middle East
The US is moving some personnel out of the Middle East. It can become dangerous there; Donald Trump explained what is happening.
We are talking about non-key embassy staff and military families.
The US is preparing a partial evacuation of the embassy in Iraq, and also offered to leave Bahrain and Kuwait, notes Reuters.
The US president said that American personnel are leaving the Middle East because it can be a dangerous place.
He also added that the United States will never allow Iran to possess nuclear weapons.
Earlier, Trump repeatedly threatened to strike Iran if the protracted negotiations on the “nuclear deal” fail, writes DW.
And US intelligence says Israel plans to attack Iranian facilities, the agency recalls.
Reports of possible evacuation of US personnel from the Middle East led to a rise in oil prices by more than 4%.
