Amid growing tension in the Middle East, US President Donald Trump indicated that the war with Iran is going to end soon, although he did not give any specific timeline. In a press conference, Trump said about the war that we are very close to ending it too. Trump said, I will not allow any terrorist regime to hold the world hostage and try to stop the global oil supply. If Iran does anything like this, it will receive even more severe punishment. From which they will never be able to recover.
There has been a huge fall in oil prices after the US President’s comment that the war will end soon. However, when asked if ‘soon’ meant within a week, Trump replied, “No, but I think soon.” He said that the army of the Islamic Republic has been completely destroyed.

Plan to take over the Middle East
Trump said that Iran was planning to take over the Middle East and destroy Israel. We stopped it at the right time. We are very proud to be involved in this. He said that the US has refrained from targeting some power generation sites in Iran for now, but will do so if Iran does not cooperate.
Many targets on our radar
During a press conference in Florida on the Iran war, Trump said that we have left some of the most important targets for later, so that they can be used if needed. Trump further said that if we attack those targets, it will take years to rebuild them. These targets are related to power generation and many other things. If it is not necessary we will not do it.

Attempt to stop global oil supply
Further clarifying his readiness to target power generation sites, Trump said, I will not allow any terrorist regime to hold the world hostage and try to cut off global oil supplies. If Iran does anything like this, it will receive even more severe punishment. They will never recover. If they want to play this game, it would be better if they don’t play this game.
oil price will go down
They argue that war would neutralize the threat posed by Iran to global shipping and oil supplies. This will result in lower oil prices, and lower oil and gas prices for American families. Trump announced that during this brief disruption, the US is providing political risk insurance to all tankers operating in the Gulf. He also said that America is giving relaxation in some restrictions related to oil to reduce the prices.
Will safely evacuate tankers from the strait
Trump said that when the time comes, the US Navy and its allies will safely evacuate tankers from the strait if necessary. He claimed that we are well ahead of our initial deadline. The President reiterated that he wants to be involved in the selection of Iran’s next leader. Trump said that we do not want a president who may not be willing to do what I am willing to do. We do not want to be stuck in the same situation even after five or ten years.
Iran’s drone and missile capabilities destroyed
President Trump said that together with our Israeli allies, we are crushing the enemy with a tremendous display of technical prowess and military power. Iran’s drone and missile capability has been completely destroyed. The navy is finished. Everything is submerged in the depths of the sea. We have destroyed 46 ships. Their terrorist leaders have been killed. Trump said that we will not retreat until the enemy is completely and decisively defeated.
Trump said that we have won in many ways, but we have not won enough yet. We move forward with greater determination than ever before to achieve the final victory that will end this long-standing threat forever. America is the greatest and most extraordinary nation in human history and will no longer be threatened by evil terrorists and lunatics.
