US Vice President Vance said in an interview on August 13, local time, that he is convinced that the US will achieve its dual goals against Iran: preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and maintaining stable energy prices. Vance said that the US will be “in a more favorable position” after the game with Iran, and that the Trump administration is using diplomatic, military, and economic tools “very selectively and strategically” to ensure the achievement of goals. Vance also added that the situation is still unpredictable because Iran “sometimes does not keep its promises to us.”
