The latest development in the escalating tensions between the United States and Iran is President Donald Trump's decision to deploy a second aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, to the Middle East. This move comes amid strained nuclear diplomacy and follows the deployment of the USS Abraham Lincoln to the region. According to 'Dawn', Trump stated, 'In case we don’t make a deal, we’ll need it … if we need it, we’ll have it ready.' The deployment is part of a broader strategy to increase military pressure on Iran, with Trump openly supporting regime change in Iran, describing it as 'the best thing that could happen' (Tribune Latest). The USS Gerald R. Ford, the world's largest aircraft carrier, has been operating in the Caribbean and will take at least a week to reach the Middle East, as reported by multiple sources including 'The Frontier Post'.
