"Despite the heightened tensions, a full-scale war [between the U.S. and Iran] remains unlikely in the immediate term."

"Trump has been clear in his desire to resolve the issue diplomatically and avoid war [with Iran] in the Middle East."

"Despite all the hysteria of war, I'm not really seeing that on the horizon."

"It is highly unlikely that Trump will bomb Iran, not least because he vowed on the presidential campaign trail not to drag the United States into a war."

"The potential of some kind of conflict with Iran escalating into a larger regional war is very real, possibly more real than ever."

"The United States now seems close to a direct conflict that Biden (and Iran) have worked hard to avoid."

"[A] full-scale war is hardly inevitable."

"If they [Iran] don't make a deal [with the US], there will be bombing."

"The president cannot circumvent congressional war powers and unilaterally send US troops to war with Iran."

"You can't have a president just beginning a war on his own [without congressional approval]."

"President Trump has full constitutional authority to take military action against Iran's nuclear program without a formal declaration of war."

"History and precedent favour Trump in this action [authorize airstrikes in Iran without requesting permission from Congress]."

"I do [have the authority to declare war on Iran without Congress approval]."

Will Trump Bypass the US Congress and Declare War on Iran?

Trump stated that the global community must facilitate complete access to technology so that every individual can reach their full potential through education. She argued that artificial intelligence can be a force for good in democratizing knowledge.

Iran's ambassador to the UN stated it was "deeply shameful and hypocritical" for the United States to convene a meeting on protecting children while simultaneously launching airstrikes on Iranian cities. The US holds the council's rotating monthly presidency for March.
