Top U.S. advisers warned President Trump that a large-scale strike on Iran would be unlikely to topple the regime and could provoke wider retaliation, prompting allies including Israel, Saudi Arabia and Qatar to urge caution.

Jeffrey Sachs Calls U.S. Strike on Venezuela a Lawless Act, Warns of Regional Destabilisation
Jeffrey Sachs has denounced a U.S. military operation that reportedly seized Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife as illegal and emblematic of a broader pattern of U.S. interventionism.
