Trump Predicts US Could End Iran Conflict Within 2-3 Weeks
President Donald Trump has indicated that the United States' military campaign against Iran could conclude within two to three weeks, suggesting a rapid resolution to the conflict, potentially even without a formal agreement with Tehran.
Speaking from the White House, Trump asserted that American forces would "be leaving very soon," emphasizing that a formal agreement with Iran was not a prerequisite for ending operations, which Washington has termed "Operation Epic Fury."
These remarks underscore a fluctuating message from the US administration, with officials previously vacillating between advocating for negotiations and expressing a willingness to continue military action. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth acknowledged ongoing diplomatic efforts but cautioned that military operations would persist if Iran failed to meet US demands.
Meanwhile, Iran has intensified its rhetoric, with its Revolutionary Guards reportedly threatening to target major American corporations operating in the region, including tech giants like Apple and Microsoft, as well as aerospace firm Boeing.
Conflict continues on multiple fronts, including recent strikes in Beirut, as the confrontation enters its fifth week. Concurrently, international players such as China and Pakistan are advocating for an immediate ceasefire and renewed diplomatic initiatives.
Mounting oil prices and increasing domestic pressure within the United States further contribute to the urgency of efforts aimed at de-escalating the conflict.
