On the military front, Trump asserted that the US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz "was never breached," saying that "no ship was able to reach Iran or break the blockade," and describing it as "an impenetrable wall."
He stressed that the war with Iran was aimed at eliminating its nuclear capabilities, stating that "Iran cannot be allowed to possess a nuclear weapon," and arguing that the confrontation "was not a war per se."
Trump added that the war lasted about four months but was "relatively short" given its objectives.
