Pressed about previous remarks claiming the war on Iran would end in four to six weeks, US President Donald Trump stands by his claim, stating that he “took a little break and I gave them (Iran) a little break”.
“I did say that, I thought it would take four to six weeks and I was right, because … at four weeks, their military was decimated,” he tells reporters at the White House.
Trump has also refused to give a timeline on how long it will take to reach an agreement to end the conflict.
“I don’t want to rush myself … you know who’s under time pressure? They are,” Trump says of Iran.
