WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Donald Trump said the United States could intensify its military campaign against Iran over the next two to three weeks, including potential strikes on key infrastructure, as the conflict enters a critical phase.
In a primetime address, Trump said U.S. forces are nearing completion of their core objectives but warned that if a deal is not reached, the U.S. would launch broader attacks targeting Iran’s power grid and possibly oil facilities. He described the planned escalation as part of a strategy to force an end to the war.
Trump provided few new details on how the conflict would conclude and did not outline a clear diplomatic path forward. He also did not indicate any immediate plans for ground troop deployment, though additional U.S. forces have been sent to the region.
The remarks come as global markets react to the conflict, with oil prices rising and financial markets showing increased volatility tied to uncertainty over the Strait of Hormuz, a key global shipping route.
Trump framed the military campaign as necessary to prevent Iran from developing nuclear capabilities, while critics question the long-term strategy and economic impact as the war continues.
