US President Donald Trump has stated that his administration is not currently planning to deploy ground troops to Iran, though he did not rule out the possibility of such actions in the future.

According to Operative Information Center-OMM, citing foreign media, the president addressed questions from journalists aboard his aircraft regarding whether US forces could be deployed to seize Iranian oil facilities or nuclear fuel storage sites. In response, US President Donald Trump said, "We are not going to do that now, maybe later."

The statement comes amid heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, where the United States has historically maintained a significant military presence to ensure regional stability and the security of global energy corridors. The potential targeting of energy and nuclear infrastructure remains a focal point of international security discussions, as the US administration continues to evaluate its strategic options regarding Tehran's regional influence and nuclear program.
