Washington: Donald Trump has retracted from his earlier statement and now saying that he doesn't want to see a regime change in Iran as it takes a lot of chaos.

Speaking to the press, Donald Trump said that he wants to see everything calming down as quickly as possible in the Middle East.

In another statement, Trump remarked that regime change takes a lot of chaos and ideally they don't want to see someone else's chaos. 

Donald Trump lauded Iranians for being good traders and business people adding they will be able to rebuild themselves, though they can never have nuclear weapons.

Middle East see faced paced developments, ceasefire and then violation 

A lot has happened in the Middle East, especially in the last 24 hours starting with Iran targeting US Al-Udeid airbase in Qatar, Donald Trump announcing Israel-Iran ceasefire, urging for peace in the region and then a criss-cross attack by both the nations involved in the ongoing conflict, the US President expressing his emotions that he was not happy by their conducts and once again appealing for peace, but it seems that people are not taking the US President that seriously.

However, Donald Trump and Netanyahu did talk over phone where the US President asked the Israeli leadership to stop attacking Iran. 

Donald Trump says stop bombing Iran, peace now 

Just before leaving for NATO Summit in Netherlands, Donald Trump spoke to press at the South Laws in the White House saying he was not happy with Iran or Israel either for not obeying the ceasefire. Trump asked Israel not to bomb Iran and asked the country to call its pilots back home now.

Donald Trump's frustration was so visible that he used the cuss words saying both the nations have been fighting for so long that they don't even know what the “F**K” they were doing.

Israel not going to attack Iran, says Donald Trump 

Taking to his Truth Social page, Donald Trump said, “Israel is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home, while doing a friendly “plane wave” to Iran. Nobody will be hurt, the ceasefire is in effect! Thank you for your attention to this matter! Donald J Trump, President of United States.”

“Israel… Do not drop those bombs. If you do it is a major violation. Bring your pilots home, now! Donald J Trump, President of the United States,” he added.

 

Donald Trump announces Israel-Iran ceasefire 

On the intervening night of June 23-24, Donald Trump, hours after Iran launched a missile attack targeting US airbase in Qatar, said, “CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED!”

"Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World. During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL. On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, “THE 12 DAY WAR,” the US President said.

“This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn't, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD,” the US President concluded.
