In March 2026, President Trump ordered the US military to postpone strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for five days. This decision followed what Trump described as "good and productive conversations" with Tehran. According to Al Jazeera's Alan Fisher, this postponement could offer Trump an "off-ramp" from potential war with Iran, despite the US not pursuing regime change. The strikes were planned against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure. The reason for the postponement was to allow for further diplomatic engagement between the US and Iran.
