US President Donald Trump downplayed the importance of a potential deal with Iran, saying the outcome of ongoing talks “does not matter much.”
His remarks come as diplomatic efforts continue following negotiations in Islamabad.
Donald Trump said that whether or not an agreement is reached with Iran, the United States will maintain its position.
“We are seeing what happens next, but success or failure is not important to me,” he stated.
He added that both the recent conflict and ongoing negotiations share the same objective: preventing Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
Claims of victory over Iran
The US president claimed that Washington has already secured the upper hand in its conflict with Iran.
He alleged that Iran’s leadership had been eliminated and its naval, air, and defense capabilities significantly weakened.
Trump asserted that the United States had effectively achieved victory, regardless of the outcome of negotiations.
Strait of Hormuz situation
Referring to the strategic Strait of Hormuz, Trump said there were concerns about sea mines in the waterway.
He noted that US forces have started the process of clearing the area using modern equipment, expressing hope that it will reopen soon.‘Serious Consequences’ if Arms Supplied
Trump also addressed reports of China providing weapons to Iran.
“If this is true, the consequences will be very serious,” he warned, signaling potential escalation if such support is confirmed.
