Aircraft Carrier Tension Between the US and Iran: "Our Finger is on the Trigger"
The US has deployed the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln near Iran. Iran announced that they are closely monitoring the ship, issuing the message: "Our finger is on the trigger."
How did the tension begin?
In fact, relations between the US and Iran have steadily deteriorated since US President Donald Trump took office last year. Washington intervened in the mutual bombardment between Iran and Israel in June and struck nuclear facilities in Iran.
President Trump also supported the anti-regime protests that started in Iran this year. In his post on January 13, he stated: "Iranian patriots, keep protesting, seize government institutions! Help is on the way."
