Explained: US Sends Second Aircraft Carrier To Middle East Amid Iran Tensions

Описание: The United States is sending the world’s largest aircraft carrier, USS Gerald R. Ford, to the Middle East to reinforce an existing carrier presence amid rising tensions with Iran. The move adds significant military weight to President Donald Trump’s push to pressure Tehran over its nuclear program.

The deployment comes days after Trump suggested fresh talks with Iran, though negotiations have yet to materialise. Regional tensions remain high, with Gulf Arab nations warning that any military escalation could trigger a wider conflict in a region already strained by the Israel-Hamas war.

At the same time, Iran faces mounting domestic pressure as citizens observe 40-day mourning ceremonies following a deadly crackdown on nationwide protests. The latest US naval build-up signals a strategic message of deterrence as diplomatic uncertainty persists.
