Trump Says Iran Conflict Is “Effectively Over”
Donald Trump said the conflict with Iran was “effectively over”, but added that the United States was still seeking a long-term solution to Iran’s nuclear programme.
Trump said military action was not needed then.
US forces stayed ready to act. They could act if things changed.
Trump said the conflict would end soon.
He said the United States still wanted a long-term nuclear deal with Iran.
Markets saw less tension. Brent crude fell to about $89–90 a barrel.
This was its lowest price since late August. Share prices went up.
Republican Representative Thomas Massie moved to force a vote.
The vote would be about removing Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
It would concern his handling of the war.
Trump criticised Massie. Hegseth defended the military action.
