Trump Predicts Iran War Will End After US Midterm Elections Amid Rising Tensions
US President Donald Trump predicted the war with Iran will end immediately after the November midterm elections, asserting that Iran cannot sustain the conflict much longer and is attempting to influence the vote to secure a more favorable US administration. He linked the ongoing conflict to Iran's nuclear ambitions and said oil prices, which have surged amid the fighting, would fall after the elections. While Trump ruled out active negotiations, he acknowledged talks could possibly occur. Meanwhile, some White House advisers privately warned the conflict might extend through the end of his term. Recent escalations include attacks on ships near the Strait of Hormuz by both sides, raising global oil price concerns.
