The article discusses the complex situation in Iran and the potential implications of U.S. political decisions under Donald Trump.

In this opinion piece, Jerzy Haszczyński reflects on the volatile situation in Iran, particularly in light of recent protests that have been met with violent government crackdowns, resulting in the deaths of thousands. He raises concerns about the influence of U.S. politics, notably the role of Donald Trump, on the fate of the Iranian people, questioning whether Trump's decisions could lead to military action against Iran or an eventual agreement with the regime that many in Iran despise.

Haszczyński speculates on the unpredictability of Trump's foreign policy, pondering whether an attack on Iran could be imminent when this issue hits newsstands. He contrasts the potential for military conflict with the possibility of diplomacy that could help elevate Iran's global standing.

The article illustrates the precarious balance of international relations and highlights the humanitarian crisis confronting ordinary Iranians. By portraying the Iranian regime's violence against its citizens and the external pressures from powerful nations, Haszczyński underscores the critical nature of these events and their far-reaching consequences, both for the Iranian populace and for global geopolitics.
