Trump signals US could leave Iran war within weeks
Amid ongoing geopolitical tensions, a new update has come from the US President Donald Trump, who on Tuesday stated that Washington would put a stop to its military strikes against Iran within two to three weeks.
This signalled a possible end to the month-long conflict that has disrupted the Middle East and affected global energy markets.
‘We’ll Be Leaving Very Soon’: Trump’s New Announcement at the White House
Iran war news update: Addressing the White House, the US President stated, "We’ll be leaving very soon." He added that this will likely happen within two to three weeks, according to news reports.
His remarks were a clear signal that the United States was winding down its military operation.
Trump further said that Washington does not consider a diplomatic agreement with Tehran necessary to end the conflict.
His words were "Iran doesn't have to make a deal, no," he said, adding, "No, they don't have to make a deal with me."
He also said that the end of the campaign will only take place after Iran gets into the Stone Age and becomes incapable of forming a nuclear weapon. After accomplishing this objective, Washington will leave then.
The White House later mentioned that Trump would address the nation on Wednesday at 9:00 PM EST (Thursday, 6:30 AM IST) to provide a key update on the situation with Iran.
Washington’s Previous Warning to Tehran On Refusing 15-Point US Ceasefire Proposal.
Tehran war updates: Earlier, Washington warned Tehran to take its 15-point ceasefire proposal seriously. Otherwise, the US would intensify military operations.
The main points mentioned in the proposal demand that Iran refrain from building nuclear weapons, suspend uranium enrichment, and completely reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Donald Trump Iran Deal
Following more updates on the US-Iran conflict, US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said American President Donald Trump is still willing to make a deal with Iran to end the ongoing war, which has claimed thousands of lives, spread across nearby nations, disrupted energy supplies and has led to a rise in global oil prices. It has also resulted in a worldwide economic crisis.
Based on state media reports, the statement has come after a threat from Iran’s Revolutionary Guards to attack key US technology and industrial organisations from April 1. They have described it as a retaliation for attacks on Iranian territory.
Top American Firms Under Threat
Among the top 18 companies named in the statement that could be targeted by the IRGC are IBM, Google, Boeing, Intel, Tesla, Microsoft, and Apple. As per the warning, they have threatened to strike their regional operations.
According to Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, he is receiving direct messages from the United States, but they don’t consider these negotiations to be genuine peace talks, as Tehran has taken a firmer stance to end the war.
Addressing Al Jazeera, Aragchi mentioned indirect communications with US special envoy Steve Witkoff.
