PANews reported on March 26 that US President Trump stated: The war with Iran is progressing extremely rapidly, far ahead of schedule. The timeline for the war with Iran is four to six weeks. Iran is talking to us. Iran is negotiating with us because they have been defeated. 154 Iranian ships have been destroyed. The US can truly 'freely enter' Iranian towns. Iran has a chance to reach an agreement. Let's see if we can reach the right agreement. If Iran reaches the right agreement, the Straits will be reopened. Iran no longer has mine-laying ships. Iran has a chance to abandon its nuclear ambitions. In the meantime, we will continue to 'utterly destroy' them. Iran must reach an agreement or face continued attacks from the US.
US President Trump: (Regarding US stocks) I thought they would fall even more. The decline in oil prices and stocks is not as "serious" as some have said. Measures to help American farmers will be announced on Friday. Energy prices will fall, possibly even lower. Bessant will speak about measures to address rising energy prices.
