US President Trump: War will end in two or three weeks
In a telephonic interview with NBC News late Tuesday, US President Donald Trump said that he believes the war on Iran is “coming to an end”.
When asked what he was going to bring oil prices back down, “all I have to do is leave Iran – and we’ll be doing that very soon. Then prices will “come tumbling down.”
He further spoke on keeping the strait of Hormuz open - “That’s not for us. That’ll be for France. That’ll be for whoever’s using the strait.”
Additional quotes
We’re doing great. And it’s coming to an end.
The people we’re dealing with [in Iran] are much more reasonable and not as radicalised.
We will not have an Iran with nuclear weapons … I have to go, I have a war to prosecute.
Now we’re finishing the job.
I think in two weeks or maybe a few days longer, we’ll do the job. We want to knock out everything they’ve got.
