U.S. President Donald Trump asserted on Wednesday night that Washington has achieved "swift, decisive, overwhelming victories" in its military engagement with Iran, claiming the U.S. is nearing completion of its objectives. Speaking from the White House on April 1, 2026, Trump cited the alleged destruction of Iran's naval and air capabilities, along with targeted operations against leadership figures, as pivotal successes.
"America is winning," Trump declared, adding that military goals would be finalized "very shortly." However, he warned of intensified strikes over the next two to three weeks if negotiations collapse, threatening to target Iran's energy infrastructure and "bring them back to the Stone Ages."
While emphasizing ongoing diplomatic discussions, Trump stated, "If no deal is reached, we will hit each and every one of their electric generating plants." Analysts speculate that the remarks aim to consolidate domestic political support amid escalating regional tensions.
