Trump Hints at War’s End

“President Donald Trump played down the prospect of renewed fighting in the war with Iran, even as questions remain over Tehran’s nuclear program and access to the Strait of Hormuz,” Bloomberg reports.

“Speaking to ABC News on Tuesday, Trump said extending a ceasefire that expires next week may not be necessary, hinting at near-term progress toward a deal to end the near seven-week conflict. In a Fox Business interview, he said the war is ‘close to over.’”

CNBC: Iran war “very close to over,” Trump says — and the stock market “is going to boom.”
