Trump's Position on the Ongoing Iran-Israel Conflict

The intense conflict between Iran and Israel has now entered its fifth day. In this context, U.S. President Donald Trump has made it clear that his goal extends beyond merely achieving a ceasefire; he seeks a 'real end' to the war. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump stated, 'We are looking for something better than a ceasefire.'


Clarification on Trump's Statement

Elaborating on his statement, Trump emphasized, 'A real end. Not just a ceasefire. An end.' His remarks have intensified global concerns and diplomatic activities, especially as the conflict has already claimed hundreds of lives and caused turmoil in global oil markets.


America's Stance on Support for Israel

When questioned about America's position and the assistance being provided to Israel, Trump responded, 'We are doing quite well at this time. Remember, Iran cannot have nuclear weapons.'


Potential Diplomatic Engagement with Iran

Trump also hinted at the possibility of sending senior officials, such as Vice President J.D. Vance or Special Envoy Steve Vitkoff, to engage in discussions with Iran.


Impending Developments in the Conflict

Indicating that Israeli operations are ongoing, Trump remarked, 'You will know in the next two days. No one has slowed down yet.' Despite leaving the G7 summit early, he denied that this decision was linked to ceasefire negotiations.


Response to Macron's Comments

In response to French President Emmanuel Macron's statement suggesting that the U.S. had proposed a ceasefire, Trump took to Truth Social to clarify, 'Incorrect! He doesn’t understand why I’m returning to Washington, but it has nothing to do with a ceasefire. This is much bigger than that.'
