Trump Says US Moves Rapidly Toward Ending War With Iran

(MENAFN) Donald Trump said Tuesday that the United States expects to bring the conflict with Iran to a close in the near future, claiming Tehran is eager to reach an agreement.

Speaking at the White House, Trump said:
"We're going to end that war very quickly. They want to make a deal so badly, they're tired of this,"

He expressed confidence that the confrontation could soon conclude while reiterating Washington’s determination to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Trump added:
"I think we're going to be finished with that very quickly, and they won't have a nuclear weapon, and hopefully we're going to get it done in a very nice manner,"

The former president also praised the strength of the US military and claimed recent operations had significantly weakened Iran’s military capabilities.

He stated:
“Our military is the greatest in the world…We wiped out their navy. Their air force is gone. Their anti-aircraft is gone. All of their material that they use for warfare is gone...I don't want to say their leaders are gone, because it's not very nice, but that happens to be true."

Trump further emphasized that Washington would not tolerate the development of an Iranian nuclear weapon under any circumstances, saying:
"We won't be able to put up with that, and we're not going to put up with it."
