Trump: If the maximum is 10 points, I would give the situation in Iran 15 points
According to comprehensive media reports, US President Trump on Wednesday spoke about the war against Iran during a meeting with tech company executives at the White House, saying that the US military's performance on the front lines was very good. If the maximum is 10 points, I would rate the situation 15 points.
"If I were more diplomatic, I would say that we are doing very well on the battlefield," Trump said. "Someone asked me, if the maximum is 10 points, what score would you give the situation? I said maybe 15 points."
Trump said, "If we don't strike first, they will attack Israel... If we don't take action within two weeks, they will have nuclear weapons."
"So far, we have the strongest army in the world," Trump added. "So we are in a very advantageous position."
He said, "Their (Iran's) leadership is collapsing rapidly. Anyone who wants to be a leader will eventually die."
Attack on Iran
On Saturday, the United States and Israel launched a military operation against Iran. Tel Aviv stated that the target was to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons. At the same time, Washington threatened to destroy the Iranian navy and defense industry, and called on the Iranian people to overthrow the Iranian regime.
According to the Iranian Red Crescent, at least 787 people were killed in the US-Israeli attack, including the Supreme Leader Khamenei.
On Monday, US President Trump admitted that the duration of this military operation may exceed the initial estimate of four to five weeks. Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Rubio announced that stronger strikes would be launched against Iran.
Russian President Putin emphasized that the aggression by the United States and Israel has disrupted the nuclear talks on Iran and called on all parties to return to dialogue.
