One month has passed since the Iran war started. Since February 28, America and Israel have been continuously attacking Iran. The New York Times, quoting sources, revealed that last week Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) in a conversation with Trump requested him to continue attacking Iran. The prince even suggested that Iran's energy infrastructure be completely destroyed and, if necessary, even ground attacks.

But the interesting aspect is that while behind the scenes MBS is appealing to Trump to continue the war, Saudi Arabia has officially distanced itself from these claims by calling itself a supporter of peace. However, during the war, the Trump administration is leaving no stone unturned to humiliate MBS. Recently Trump said that MBS took them lightly Was. They have to treat them well because now America is more powerful than before. Let us know why America is doing this.

America's double attitude

The attitude of the Trump administration towards MBS is strange. On one hand, Trump told reporters that he is a warrior, he is fighting with us. But on the other hand, after reports like NYT came out, Saudi had to give clarification. That is, on one hand, America praises MBS as a warrior, on the other hand, by exposing his secret role in the media, it puts him in the dock. Saudi's role in the Iran war was revealed only by American officials. American officials themselves said that MBS has asked Trump to intensify attacks on Iran.

Saudi compulsion and fear

Experts believe that MBS fears that if Trump retreats now, Saudi Arabia and the entire West Asia will have to face Iran alone. Saudi Arabia has been trying to become a major power in West Asia for a long time and Iran has been the biggest obstacle to its goal. Both the countries have been fighting proxy wars in Yemen, Syria, Iraq and Lebanon. Trump also knows that Saudi wants to see Iran weaken, so he will ignore his words. Perhaps this is the reason why Trump is constantly seen taunting MBS.

Vision 2030 under threat?

Defense experts say that if the war prolongs, Saudi's dream project 'Vision 2030' may be in danger and foreign investors may get scared. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has had a direct impact on the business interests of oil exporting countries like Saudi Arabia, UAE and Kuwait. That means Saudi's position is neither to give up the war, nor to continue the war. The Trump administration is taking advantage of this, which puts MBS in a weak position again and again.
