Agencies: U.S. President Donald Trump said that the United States destroyed Iran’s uranium enrichment capabilities during the “Midnight Hammer” and “Epic Fury” operations, noting that Tehran remains unaware of the extent of the damage it has suffered. Trump added that during a speech at the Five Flags Center in Dubuque, Iowa, as part of the campaign for the midterm congressional elections, U.S. forces used B-2 bombers to strike Iran’s nuclear capabilities.
He stated that he had decided to take military action in the Middle East to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Trump criticized the previous nuclear deal with Iran, describing it as “terrible,” and said that if the United States had not withdrawn from it, Iran would already possess a nuclear weapon.
Regarding the course of the war, Trump predicted it would end “very soon,” adding, “You will see that.” He considered the rise in oil prices a very small price to pay for ensuring the security of the United States and the world.
Speaking about the economic cost of the war, Trump said that the gains the United States had achieved from Venezuela alone were ten times the cost of the war against Iran.
