President Donald Trump’s warning amid increasing protests in Iran has deepened tension. Israel is on high alert due to the fear of possible US intervention and anxiety has increased in West Asia.
Iran Protest: The situation seems to be changing rapidly in Iran. Large-scale protests are taking place against the country’s weakening economy, continuously falling value of the Rial, rising inflation and unemployment. People have taken to the streets in many big cities including the capital Tehran. Amidst these protests, US President Donald Trump’s strict warning has created a stir across West Asia. Trump has clearly said that if the Iranian government uses force against the protesters, America will not remain silent.
Why did public anger erupt in Iran?
The people of Iran have been facing economic pressure for a long time. The value of the Iranian currency, the rial, has fallen to historic lows in recent months. Due to this the purchasing power of common people has been badly affected. Goods of daily needs have become expensive and the problem of unemployment is becoming increasingly serious.
People angry with these conditions are openly protesting against the government. The number of protesters is continuously increasing in Tehran, Mashhad and other big cities. People are taking to the streets and raising questions on economic policies and administrative decisions.
International concern increased due to Trump’s threat
US President Donald Trump has given a sharp reaction to the ongoing protests in Iran. He warned Iran’s rulers that using force against protesters could have serious consequences. Trump also said that America will not tolerate any attempt to suppress the voice of the people of Iran.
After this statement, the discussion has intensified at the international level that America can directly intervene in the affairs of Iran. There is also speculation in the media of Western countries that America may take some big step if the situation worsens.
Fear of American intervention
Experts believe that Trump’s statement is not limited to just a warning. This is a clear indication that the US is keeping a close eye on the internal situation in Iran. If the situation turns violent, the possibility of American intervention cannot be ruled out.
Iran is already facing international sanctions and political pressure. In such a situation, any American step can further increase regional instability.
Israel on high alert
Israel has tightened its security arrangements in view of possible American interference in Iran. According to Israeli sources, the country has been put on high alert. Security agencies are keeping an eye on every activity.
Israel has long considered Iran the biggest threat to its security. In such a situation, any major development related to Iran directly affects Israel’s security strategy. Officials say that the situation is being taken very seriously.
Why is Israel worried
Israel fears that if the situation in Iran worsens or America takes any military or political action, it will have an impact on the entire region. The activities of Iran-backed groups may intensify, which may increase the threat to Israel’s borders.
For this reason the Israeli army and intelligence agencies are alert. Although detailed information about security preparations has not been shared by the government, it is clear that preparations are being made to deal with any emergency.
Conversation between Netanyahu and US Secretary of State
Meanwhile, an important phone conversation took place between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The conversation took place on Saturday, in which the current situation in Iran and the possibility of US intervention were discussed.
According to Israeli sources, the two leaders discussed regional security and future strategy. However, detailed details of the talks have not been made public. An American official confirmed the call, but did not say what issues were agreed upon.
diplomatic stir intensifies
It has become clear from the conversation between Netanyahu and the US Secretary of State that diplomatic activities have intensified regarding the situation in Iran. Both America and Israel are monitoring the situation and considering every possible option.
protests in iran
The government of Iran is currently facing a double challenge. On one hand, it has to deal with the growing public anger within the country, while on the other hand, international pressure is also increasing. If the government adopts strictness, the situation may become more complicated after Trump’s warning. If the government ignores the demands of the protesters, the movement may intensify. In such a situation, a big question has arisen on the internal stability of Iran.
