U.S. President Donald Trump addressed a press conference to summarize the outcomes of a military operation against Iran. According to the President, American forces delivered a "crushing blow" to Tehran, preventing a large-scale destabilization of the region.
The President’s primary assertions focused on the preemptive nature of the strikes. Trump claimed that U.S. intelligence uncovered Iranian plans for an imminent attack on American facilities. In the ensuing confrontation, he stated that the U.S. Navy completely destroyed the Iranian fleet.
On the nuclear issue, the White House reportedly offered Iran free fuel for peaceful atomic energy, but Tehran insisted on enriching uranium for weapons production. Trump declared that the Islamic Republic's nuclear program has been liquidated "forever," though he acknowledged the potential risk of its resumption in the future.
Regarding the oil market and global sanctions, the U.S. intends to secure energy supplies by escorting tankers with naval vessels. In an effort to drive down global oil prices, Trump promised to lift sanctions on several countries, including Russia. He expressed hope that this move would lead to "universal peace" and eliminate the necessity of re-imposing restrictions.
The President emphasized that the operation was essential to protect the Middle East and Israel from aggression. He stressed that the United States is acting "in the interest of the entire world," providing assistance that benefits even nations such as China.
According to Trump's assessment, the campaign is running ahead of schedule and is nearing its conclusion. He issued a stern warning to Tehran against any attempts at retaliation, promising to strike with "unprecedented force" should a new threat emerge.
