US President Donald Trump claimed that the United States is poised to win the ongoing war "very soon," alleging that the conclusion of hostilities will lead to a rapid drop in global oil prices.
Speaking to Fox News during an appearance at the Presidents Cup at Medinah Country Club, Trump expressed confidence in the trajectory of the conflict.
"I think what's going to happen is we're going to win this war very soon," US President Trump stated. "As soon as we win it, oil will go way down to what it was before the war."
Emphasizing the strategic objective of the campaign, Trump designated nuclear non-proliferation as the paramount objective driving US policy.
"The key is Iran will not have a nuclear weapon," Trump said. "That's the key to the whole thing."
When asked whether the US is prevailing primarily through Treasury Department economic sanctions or targeted military strikes, Trump claimed that both tactics are achieving results.
"I think both," Trump noted. "I think we're winning it both ways. We've already won it really from a military standpoint, but that doesn't mean we've stopped that. But we're certainly winning it very big."
