Trump Says He Believes War with Iran is Militarily 'Effectively Over'
President Donald Trump on Monday told reporters he believes the war in Iran “militarily is effectively over," suggesting that — at least for now — he’s not prepared to resume the bombardment that has devastated the Iranian Republic and caused reverberations across the global economy. The president made a surprise visit to the White House briefing room after meeting earlier in the day with Qatar’s prime minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani. “Iran militarily is effectively over,” Trump said. “We’re just keeping it the status quo.”
