US President Donald Trump said the US has “won the war” and claimed Iran’s navy and air force have been completely destroyed.

Speaking at the Swearing-In Ceremony for the Secretary of Homeland Security, Trump said, “We’re in negotiations right now. I can tell you, they’d like to make a deal and who wouldn’t if you were there? Look, their navy’s gone, their air force is gone, their communications are gone. pretty much everything they have is gone.”

Trump said the US is in the “best bargaining position” and claimed Iran has agreed not to pursue nuclear weapons.

“We will have control of anything we want. If we can end this without more lives being lost, without knocking out $10 billion electric plants, that are brand new, the apple of their eye, I would like to be able to do that. They can’t have certain things. It starts with no nuclear weapons, and they have agreed to that. There won’t be any nuclear weapons. We are in about the best bargaining position. We are way ahead of schedule. They have no Navy, no Air Force and no missile protection,” Trump added.

Despite ongoing negotiations, Trump said he does not trust Iran and confirmed talks are continuing to end the conflict.v
