¿Pasará Trump del belicismo de sus tuits a atacar Irán?

Hasta ahora, el presidente de Estados Unidos ha mostrado una posición ambigua

Washington. El presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, enfrenta la encrucijada de si atacar Irán o no. En junio abortó la idea a último minuto, pero tras los ataques contra Arabia Saudí, que Washington atribuye a Teherán, Trump se enfrenta a una de las decisiones más importantes de su presidencia.

Una vez más, Trump está frente a un dilema que lo ha acompañado durante todo su mandato: su determinación a proyectar la imagen de un presidente fuerte, con tuits belicistas en mano, frente a su voluntad y sus promesas de campaña de pasar la página a la implicación de Estados Unidos en Oriente Medio, la cual considera que tiene un costo demasiado alto.
