Donald Trump claims US is nearing victory in Iran conflict
President Donald Trump stated that the United States is close to winning the conflict with Iran, citing progress made through both military action and economic pressure. Speaking to media, Trump expressed confidence that the war would end soon, which he predicts will cause global oil prices to drop to pre-war levels.
Trump did not rule out the possibility of new military strikes against Iran prior to the upcoming midterm elections. He emphasized that a central objective of American strategy remains preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Additionally, Trump claimed that Iran's economy is in ruins, noting high inflation rates, and asserted that record amounts of oil were recently extracted from the Strait of Hormuz.
In response to these developments, Iranian officials, including Abbas Araghchi, indicated that the country is prepared to defend itself against any new attacks, even if the situation escalates into a larger war.
