He President of the United States, Donald Trump, has announced that I left This Monday night the G7 Summit in Canada a day earlier than expected to regresar a Washington. The argument for the abrupt change of plans is the Crisis of the Middle East, In dangerous climbing since five days ago Israel launched an unprecedented attack against Iran to which the Tehran regime has responded with its own attacks.

The announcement of the premature return has initially given the spokeswoman for the White House, Karoline Leavitt, in a message in X. Then Trump has confirmed it in a statement to the press with the rest of the G7 leaders before the head of state chief dinner, his last act. “Everything see what I see, I have to go back as soon as possible “he said.

Before the ads about his precipitated return Trump had hung in Truth socially an alarmist message about the situation in Iran: “Everyone must immediately evacuate Tehran”, He had written. He replied thus an alert that the Israeli authorities had already launched and that has raised the tension and fear among the 10 million inhabitants of the Iranian capital.

“Defensive posture”

Both Trump’s message and the fact that he has summoned his National Security Council To meet at the situation room, and Israeli pressures to get involved in a more direct way, have triggered the alarms and rumors in social networks about a possible US military involvement, something that the Pentagon and the White House have been in charge of deny overwhelmingly.

“US forces maintain their defensive posture and that has not changed. We will defend the US interests, ”said Alex Pfeiffer, an advisor and member of the Trump communication team, who as a Pentagon spokesman has denied that US combat planes were participating in bombing in Iran.

Iran’s messages

Hours before the announcement back to Washington Trump had already declared journalists in Kananaskis that he felt he should get more involved in the crisis of the Middle East, in which Iran has been sending signs that look for an end of escalation and of the conflict and the Return to the negotiating table With the US about its nuclear program.

Iran has asked Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Oman to mediate with Trump to stop Israel in the offensive, according to anonymous Iranian sources cited by the Reuters agency. Tehran also wants Avoid at all costs that the US meets the attack campaign Israelí according to sources of ‘The Wall Street Journal’,

“They know that the US supports in defense and is sure to support logistics, but They want guarantees that the US will not join the attacks, ”said one of the fountains of the newspaper.

Israel would need US help to do significant damage to Iran’s objectives such as the enrichment facilities of Uranium of Fordo, buried Under a mountain.

As journalists in Canada told the French president, Emmanuel Macron, Trump iiene High fire offers that could lead to broader conversations. “If the US can get a stop the fire, it would be very good, France would support it,” said the Gallic, framing in a positive perspective the advanced farewell of the American ..

The magician gap

Trump has several engines to try to stop the crisis and avoid being dragged into a war. In it Maga movement and in circles of the ultra -right He is criticized to look at that entry in a conflict in which Israel does not deny that one of the results can be a regime change.

Influential characters in that media and ideological ecosystem such as Tucker Carlson have raised themselves against American involvement. The former Fox presenter has written in recent days that Trump was “accomplice” and warned that it happens “It will define its presidency.” In the podcast of Ultra Steve Bannon he said that entering this war would represent “The end of the empire from the US ”.

Trump has replicated outraged and has become against the journalist who for years has been his firm ally and defender. In a statement to the press in Canada, he said, causticthat Carlson should make his comments on a television. Hours later, after it was announced that he returned to the US, he insulted him in a message in Truth Social. “That someone explains to crackpot Tucker Carlson that “Iran can’t have a nuclear bomb,” he said.

The gap that opens with a fundamental part of its base and its support, however, is evident. And Congresswoman Ultra Marjorie Taylor-Greene, for example, in an X message has been put from Carlson and not Trump and has suggested that she is breaking her promise of “USA first “.

“Foreign wars, intervention and regime changes put the US in the last place, kill innocent people, ruin us and end up leading us to our destruction. That It is not crazy. That is why millions of Americans voted “the congresswoman has written.

Ni Zelenski ni Sheinbaum

Trump had already shown objections to put his signature in a G7 statement with which it was intended to call both Israel and Iran to a broken down. Now his accelerated return to Washington means that he cannot participate in other important meetings for other wars that are open: that of Ukraine and the commercial he has launched against the world.

The president will not celebrate the bilateral he had organized on Tuesday with the President of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, nor in another with the President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum.

On the day that has passed in Kananaskis, he has announced the signing of a tariff agreement with the United Kingdom (although in a moment He seemed to forget Brexit and said he had an agreement with the EU). Despite trade conversations with the leaders of Canada, Germany, France, Japan and the president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, the clock that he himself launched with an countdown to achieve commercial agreements and tariffs before the July 9 Keep advancing.
