Iran and the United States are again in disagreement, while the Middle East country goes to 3.67% of enrichment. The country started enriching uranium after Donald Trump abandoned the historic agreement reached in 2015 with nuclear power.

Mr. Trump warmed Sunday Iran "better be careful" as he continues on his way.

Before joining Air Force One, he told the press, "You are enriching for a reason and I will not tell you what the reason is.

The US State Department, Mike Pompeo, continued the President's rhetoric, which threatened further sanctions.

What would happen if the United States went to war with Iran?

The chances of the United States going to war with Iran are low because the White House insists on imposing sanctions on Tehran.

However, if countries end up trading, the result would be "much worse than Iraq."

According to Ilan Goldenberg, head of the Iranian team of the US Department of Defense between 2009 and 2012: "It would be a violent convulsion similar to the chaos of the Arab Spring inflicted on the region for years."

The continuation of the sanctions could lead Tehran into a fierce war against the United States, forcing Donald Trump into a physical conflict.

This conflict could lead to a series of proxy wars across the Middle East and the number of casualties that could lead to each country's perception of the "red line" of the conflict.

Jasmine El-Gamal, former Pentagon adviser for the Middle East, said: "Unintentional civilian casualties or other collateral damage is still possible, and it is unclear whether this administration – or any administration – includes what are the red lines of Iran.

"As such, the greatest risk of a generalized war comes from one side that miscalculates the tolerance of the other [for conflict]. "

Retired Marine General Lieutenant Vincent Stewart, who spent time on the military intelligence front line, said the Iranian military would try to avoid direct confrontation with the United States.

On July 2 of this year, Cipher Brief said that the Iranian armed forces would support an "extension" of the conflict.

He said: "The Iranian strategy would be to avoid, as far as possible, conventional direct force-for-force operations.

"They would try to impose costs on a global scale, hitting US interests with cyber-operations and targeted terrorism with the intention of widening the conflict, while encouraging the international community to restrain the actions of the United States. United."
