'We'll be leaving very soon': Trump signals ending Iran war in two to three weeks (X)
Washington: US President Donald Trump made a major statement on Tuesday regarding the conflict that has been raging in the Middle East for the past month. Trump claimed that Washington could end its military campaign against Iran within the next two to three weeks.
While speaking at the White House, Donald Trump said that the Middle East war will end soon.
"We'll be leaving very soon," said Trump, adding that the withdrawal could happen "within two weeks, maybe two weeks, maybe three."
In his address, Trump also said that a diplomatic deal with Iran was not necessary for the US to end the conflict.
"Iran doesn't have to make a deal. No, they don't have to make a deal with me," the US President said.
Trump said that the campaign will end only after Iran had been "put into the stone age" and not be able to get nuclear weapons any time soon. "Then we'll leave," he said.
While talking about the Strait of Hormuz, Trump said that "Well, I think it'll automatically open, but my attitude is, I've obliterated the country. They have no strength left, and let the countries that are using the strait, let them go and open it... because I would imagine whoever's controlling the oil will be very happy to open the strait.".
Trump recently shared a post on Truth Social and directly targeted the United Kingdom and other countries who are facing fuel shortages.
"All of those countries that can't get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You'll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the USA won't be there to help you anymore, just like you weren't there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil!" he wrote.
