U.S. President Donald Trump stated Sunday that the confrontation with Iran is expected to conclude soon, either through a negotiated agreement or further American military action. "We have achieved a tremendous victory, and we will end this very soon, one way or the other. Either they will reach an agreement, or we will simply end it, you could say, perhaps the easy way," Trump told reporters. Earlier, Trump confirmed a phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during which Iran was discussed. This confirmation followed reports of disagreements between the leaders regarding ongoing negotiations with Tehran and the potential timing of renewed military actions against it. Trump described his conversation with Netanyahu as "very good." Reports from Israeli and American sources, cited by Channel 12 News, indicated the exchange was "direct and sharp" concerning Washington's contacts with Iran. The Wall Street Journal first reported on the call itself. According to the report, Netanyahu urged Trump to restart military operations against Iran immediately after the U.S. midterm elections, expressing concern over the ongoing talks with Tehran. Conversely, Trump reportedly prefers to allow diplomatic efforts to proceed for now and does not want Israel to interfere. However, the failure of these talks could lead Trump to change his stance. The White House and the Prime Minister's Office declined to comment on the report. Earlier, Trump had expressed skepticism about the Iranian regime's reliability, stating, "Iran will never have nuclear weapons. They want to reach an agreement, we'll see what happens with that." He noted that while talks, mediated by Qatar, were progressing, Iran was "not particularly reliable." Trump emphasized that the U.S. is not rushing into an agreement, citing significant damage inflicted on Iran's military, including its navy, air force, and air defense systems, and its nuclear program, stating that remaining sites could be addressed quickly.
