Graham: US not going to ‘occupy’ Iran

Sen. Lindsey Graham said the United States will not occupy Iran following a series of Israeli joint strikes there. He emphasized that the U.S. would avoid a long-term military presence.

Graham’s remarks came amid ongoing concerns about regional security and potential escalation after strikes inside Iran. He warned against any action that could draw the U.S. into a broader conflict.

The comments reflect a commitment to strategic limits on direct U.S. military involvement, focusing on allied support and deterrence rather than ground occupation.
