U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the war with Iran will end soon and that Washington aims to achieve 'complete victory.'
U.S. President Donald Trump spoke at a ceremony held at Arlington National Cemetery on the occasion of Veterans Day. Referring to military operations against Iran, Trump said, “America did not start a war with Iran. Iran has been waging war against America since 1979. This should have been resolved much earlier. We responded seriously and won. It is only a matter of when we want to end this situation. We want to make sure we achieve a complete victory, not a 93% victory. This will definitely be a complete victory.”
Trump noted that the attacks on Iran began 7 months ago, but intense clashes lasted only a few weeks, stating that 18 U.S. soldiers lost their lives during this process. Claiming that the world will become a safer and more peaceful place with the end of the war with Iran, Trump said, “We have made great progress on this matter.”
