Trump declares Iran 'defeated' as war rages
WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump asserted that Iran’s military had been “finished,” even as fighting continued and global concerns mounted over oil routes and regional stability.
Speaking to reporters on the South Lawn and in a detailed statement, Trump said the United States was close to concluding its military campaign.
“We are getting very close to meeting our objectives as we consider winding down our great Military efforts in the Middle East with respect to the Terrorist Regime of Iran,” he said.
Trump outlined a sweeping set of goals, including “Completely degrading Iranian Missile Capability, Launchers, and everything else pertaining to them,” “Destroying Iran’s Defense Industrial Base,” and “Eliminating their Navy and Air Force, including Anti-Aircraft Weaponry.”
