US Naval Force in the Gulf: The Situation with Iran
January 31, 2026
President Trump warned of a 'massive fleet' heading to the Gulf amid rising tensions with Iran. The naval force includes the aircraft carrier 'Abraham Lincoln' and several cruisers. Trump hopes he won't need to use this force and is urging Iran to reach a 'fair agreement' on its nuclear program. Negotiations have become more difficult following recent strikes. There are claims that Trump may opt for military action to address the situation.
