Trump says the war in Iran is "almost over."
Also, the Republican leader has assured us that the Strait of Hormuz is open and that ships have begun to pass through it, adding that he is considering taking control of that passage.
"I think the war is almost over." These words have been used by US President Donald Trump to warn that the attack on Iran with Israel is about to end.
In an interview with CBS News, the Republican president has assured that the US and Israel are "meeting the deadlines," and that the operation is "ahead of schedule," while "Tehran has no army, no communications (...) its missiles are very dispersed, and we are destroying its drones everywhere," he said.
At the same time, he explained that the Strait of Hormuz is open and ships have begun to pass through it, and that he is considering taking control of that passage because it is "essential" for the world economy.
Since the end of February, the Strait of Hormuz has been blocked, and thousands of ships have been blocked on either side.
Asked about the appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei as the supreme leader of Iran, he replied that he has "no message" for him and advanced that he has in mind the name of someone else to lead Iran.
Meanwhile, Russian PresidentVladimir Putin has sent Trump a political and diplomatic proposal to "quickly resolve" the conflict in Iran during the telephone conversation between the two envoys, Kremlin adviser Yuri Ushakov reported.
