U.S. President Donald Trump stated that America has already achieved a military victory over Iran but intends to pursue a "total victory," not just 93% success. Speaking at a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery, Trump expressed hope that the conflict is nearing its end, noting the extensive destruction in Iran and estimating that its reconstruction could take at least 25 years. He asserted that Tehran initiated the conflict, which he claims has been ongoing since 1979, and thanked U.S. forces working to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
Trump's remarks come amid intensive diplomatic efforts led by Qatar and Pakistan to prevent a renewed escalation. The Prime Minister of Qatar recently met with Trump at the White House to bridge gaps and avert further military confrontation. However, negotiations have been hindered by Iran's rigid stance.
While Tehran has expressed willingness to resume peace talks soon, it has set preconditions, including the lifting of U.S. sanctions, an end to the naval blockade of its ports, the release of frozen assets, and a cessation of hostilities on all fronts, including those involving Israel and Lebanon. Iran also issued a threat, stating that "any attack on us will be met with a boundless response."
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio dismissed Iran's demands as "unacceptable" and "unrealistic," tempering expectations for an imminent breakthrough. Nevertheless, he emphasized that Trump still prefers a diplomatic resolution, provided it fully addresses U.S. security concerns.
