NEW YORK, July 3. /TASS/. The United States has already achieved practically all of its goals during the negotiations with Iran, US President Donald Trump said.
"And we are negotiating," he told CNBC in an interview. "I think they will agree to just anything we need."
At the same time, Trump said he was not going to wage a war against Iran for years.
"We were in Vietnam for 19 years. We were in Afghanistan for like ten years. We were in the Korean war forever. I do not even want to mention World War One and World War Two. <…> But we were many, many years in every war. I’ve been there [in Iran] for four months," Trump said. "What have I done? I’ve defeated them militarily."
On February 28, the United States and Israel launched a war against Iran. Major Iranian cities, including Tehran, came under attack. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (an elite branch of the Iranian armed forces) announced a large-scale retaliatory operation, launching attacks against Israel. US military facilities in Bahrain, Jordan, Iraq, Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia were also targeted.
