WASHINGTON - U.S. officials said the U.S. drone strike that killed Iranian commander Qassem Soleimani on Friday might deter, rather than provoke, Iranian violence against U.S. targets despite Tehran’s vow of retaliation.
Multiple U.S. analysts said they expect Iran to retaliate, saying it was likely to take its time in deciding how to respond and would likely do so in an “asymmetric” manner that would not lead to all-out war. “From my experience with Qassem Soleimani ... it is less likely that we will see this now than it was before and, if we do see an increase in violence, it probably will not be as devilishly ingenious,” he added.
Former U.S. President Barack Obama ushered in a rapprochment by striking a 2015 agreement with Iran under which Tehran agreed to curb its nuclear program in return for access to the global economy. Relations soured, however, when U.S. President Donald Trump abandoned that pact in 2018 and reimposed U.S. sanctions.
