Obama: Trump started an unnecessary war with Iran.

Barack Obama, the former president of the United States, criticized Donald Trump's decision to start a war with Iran, saying that this war is not necessary and the American people did not demand it either. Obama stated that the main goal of the war was to force Iran to abandon its nuclear program and nuclear weapons; But according to him, Iran did not have nuclear weapons at that time and the JCPOA nuclear agreement was designed to prevent Iran from obtaining such weapons. He emphasized that his government used diplomacy, not missile strikes, to achieve this goal. Referring to the ongoing conflicts, Obama said that US bases and allies were targets of attacks, several US soldiers were killed and hundreds of people were injured, and US missile reserves were also reduced. He also said that Iran practically achieved the ability to decisively influence the passage of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, and the disruption of this route is one of the factors that raise the prices of oil, diesel and other goods.
