- Iran will need no less than 25 years to rebuild what we have destroyed
US President Donald Trump stated that the United States has achieved a military victory over Iran, emphasizing that Washington will not settle for what he described as a “93% victory,” and that its goal is to achieve a complete victory. He spoke of the conflict nearing its end, expressing hope that his country would not be forced to destroy more Iranian territory.
Trump added, during his speech at the Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia on Wednesday to commemorate Veterans Day: “We have all echoed, fought, and engaged in a very strong confrontation, and we have won. The matter now concerns only the timing of our decision to end the war.”
He expressed hope that the United States would not have to destroy more of Iran, saying: “We hope we will not be forced to destroy more of this country, as there is a great deal of work that must be done to rebuild it,” noting that reconstructing Iran could take no less than 25 years.
The conflict will end soon
Speaking about the prospects of ending the confrontation, Trump said the conflict with Iran would end soon, adding: “The conflict will end soon, and then the world will become a better place... We won the war against Iran, but I want a complete victory, not a 93% victory.”
He maintained that the United States did not start the war with Iran, but rather that Iran has been waging war against the United States since 1979, pointing out that dealing with this issue should have happened a long time ago.
Trump also thanked members of the US Armed Forces involved in operations related to Iran, saying: “On this Veterans Day, I would also like to extend special thanks to every member of the Armed Forces who is currently working to ensure that Iran never possesses a nuclear weapon.”
