The US president has been increasingly vague on his endgame as the conflict drags on
Democratic lawmakers say they fear President Donald Trump could deploy American troops to Iran, after classified briefings with administration officials left senators with what they described as significant unanswered questions about the war’s objectives and scope.
Speaking after a closed-door briefing with members of the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday, Senator Richard Blumenthal said the administration appeared to be moving toward the possibility of sending US forces into Iran.
“We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives,” Blumenthal told reporters, adding that he left the briefing “dissatisfied and angry.”
