Reports revealed that US President Donald Trump has changed his priorities regarding the goals of the war with Iran. A senior official in Washington told the American network that Trump's previously announced goals were temporarily postponed, stressing that the US military received directives to focus its efforts on securing navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, and tightening the blockade on Iran's ports to prevent oil shipments from leaving or entering them. Trump himself recently indicated that he is content to leave Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium, which was not completely destroyed in last year's US strikes on three major nuclear facilities, buried and monitored by satellite, despite his previous insistence that securing this material is a top priority in the conflict.
