Trump Says War in Iran Is 'Won,' but Administration Expects Fighting to Continue for Weeks

President Trump declared victory in the Iran war while highlighting an international oil-release deal amid ongoing conflict and mixed administration signals on its end.

  • At a Bluegrass State rally, President Donald Trump said Wednesday 'we've won' the Iran war, asserting victory without evidence.
  • The conflict began on February 28, and officials have sent mixed signals about when it will end; before his speech, Trump told Axios the war could end 'soon' because there is 'practically nothing left to target'.
  • At the rally, President Donald Trump praised 'Operation Epic Fury' as a 'great name' and touted an international agreement to release stockpiled oil reserves, saying his administration 'is also working to keep the oil flowing'.
  • Analysts warn the war could undermine Trump's plan on Russian oil, while a White House spokesperson said oil and gas prices will fall once objectives are met and Iran’s capabilities neutralized.
  • Mixed messaging from U.S. officials about a quick end contrasts with Iran's intensified operations, complicating prospects for a swift resolution as CNN reporter Andrew Kaczynski examined Trump's past claims.
