Trump Says Iran Should Act Wisely, but U.S. Will Win Regardless

Gate News message, April 26 — In an interview on April 26, U.S. President Trump commented on the Iran situation, stating that America's greatest advantage is having destroyed Iran's navy and air force, with Iran's leadership now replaced. Trump noted that the current Iranian leadership is mixed—some are rational, others less so—and Iran is internally divided and unstable.

Trump emphasized that U.S. economic sanctions on Iran are highly effective, preventing Iran from accessing additional funding and creating significant pressure. He highlighted America's military superiority as the primary source of pressure on Iran, asserting that the U.S. military is "incredible" and the strongest in the world today. He credited his first term with rebuilding the military and cited recent actions in Venezuela and Iran as proof of American military capability.

Trump concluded, "I hope Iran will act wisely, but regardless of what happens, we will win."
