Trump Says US Has Won Iran War, Seeks ‘Complete Victory’ Not 93 Percent

Tehran: US President Donald Trump has said the United States has won the war with Iran, though when the conflict will end is a separate question.

Speaking at a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, he said the United States did not start the war with Iran.

He said Iran has been in a state of war with the United States since 1979, and the issue should have been resolved long ago.

He said that in his current administration, the time had finally come for someone to stand up to Iran. He said everyone had responded, that the US had responded forcefully, fought with full strength, and won.

Trump said the US wants to ensure its victory is complete, not 93 percent. He said it will be a complete victory.

He said rebuilding what has been destroyed will take 25 years, and he hoped no other part of the country would have to be destroyed.
