He mentioned that military operations in Iran could conclude within two to three weeks as the U.S. continues its diplomatic efforts while still conducting air strikes.
During a White House event, Trump emphasized that pulling out of Iran is essential for reducing the rising fuel prices that have escalated since February 28 due to the conflict. He asserted that leaving Iran is crucial for stabilizing energy costs.

“We just need to exit Iran, and we will be doing that shortly,” Trump remarked, predicting that conditions in Iran would quickly worsen after the withdrawal.
He noted that U.S. forces are nearing the completion of their objectives, suggesting that the mission could be finalized in about two weeks, or slightly longer if needed.
Trump clarified that the decision to end military operations would not hinge on a diplomatic agreement with Tehran. Reports indicate that Iran has responded to the conflict by effectively blocking the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil shipping route, exacerbating international fuel supply issues.

The president reiterated that the U.S. aims to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. He stated that once Iran’s capabilities are sufficiently diminished, troops would withdraw regardless of the presence of a formal agreement.
Additionally, Trump criticized allied nations for not supporting U.S. requests for military help to safeguard shipping routes through the Strait of Hormuz. He urged countries that depend on Middle Eastern oil to take responsibility for protecting their own shipments.
Regarding nations experiencing fuel shortages, Trump advised them to “procure their own oil,” contending that the U.S. has shouldered much of the burden throughout the conflict and would no longer assure the protection o f tanker routes.
