A U.S. official stated that the White House meeting on Iran’s nuclear program was focused on 'prudent scenario planning' rather than an immediate military decision from Biden.
Biden's aides believe that the combination of Iran’s nuclear program acceleration and the weakening of its regional proxies creates an opportunity for a potential strike.
The discussions around military options for Iran's nuclear facilities involved considerations of improved odds for a successful strike and reduced risk of retaliation.
Despite exploring military options, Biden has not authorized any strikes against Iran's nuclear program and no further discussions are currently ongoing.
