"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."

"No, we're not thinking about nuclear weapons."

"We have no intention of obtaining these weapons at all."

"Iran doesn't have nukes, isn't building nukes, and hasn't made the decision to build nukes."

"Iran doesn't have a bomb, and doesn't appear to be trying to make a bomb."

"They are definitely going for a nuclear weapon there is no question."

Iran could produce a nuclear weapon "within a few months, less than a year."

Will Iran Possess a Nuclear Weapon?

Iran's near-total closure of the Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly one-fifth of global oil and gas supplies typically pass, has driven oil prices to nearly $120 a barrel at one point — about 40 percent higher than at the start of the conflict.

Germany's Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said the war was "a catastrophe for the world's economies" and noted that European partners had not been consulted before hostilities began. French defense chief Gen. Fabien Mandon echoed that sentiment, saying allies were not informed before the U.S. acted.

Before departing for France, Rubio told reporters he was "not there to make them happy," adding that his priority was the American people. The G7 meeting ended without a joint communique, with France instead issuing its own statement as the summit's host.

The G7 issued a statement calling for "the immediate and unconditional cessation of all attacks by the Iranian regime" and reaffirming the importance of reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. Treasury also eased sanctions on Iranian oil, allowing stranded supplies to be sold in the U.S.

South Africa said it was excluded from the June G7 leaders' summit after initially receiving an invitation, citing U.S. pressure. France denied yielding to any pressure, saying it had opted for a "streamlined G7" and invited Kenya instead ahead of a France-Africa summit in Nairobi.
