The US Secretary of State did not rule out the use of a military scenario against Iran to prevent the creation of nuclear weapons

There was a statement by the head of the State Department on the situation in Iran. If Pentagon spokesman Patrick Ryder immediately stated that the United States "has nothing to do with the strikes on Iran," then Blinken's statement at least makes one wonder how true the words of the American military official were.
Answering a question from journalists of the Al-Arabiya channel about whether the United States is going to use a military scenario against Iran so that it does not achieve the creation of a nuclear weapons, Anthony Blinken stated the following:
We do not rule out any options and scenarios regarding Iran and the military as well. All possibilities are open. But for now, the preferred option for us is the diplomatic way.
This is an official from a country that has itself pulled out of an agreement with Iran, often referred to as the “nuclear deal.” Recall that this happened under Donald Trump, but so far the United States has not returned to the deal with Iran. In response, Iran began a new cycle of work on the enrichment of nuclear fuel.
Earlier, officials in the Israeli military department said that Iran could become the owner of nuclear weapons in the near future.
Recall that last summer, US President Joseph Biden said that Washington does not rule out extreme measures against Iran if it continues to develop nuclear weapons. The US president calls the military operation against Tehran the last resort.
