Iran has rejected a 15-point peace agreement put forward by President Donald Trump’s administration that would have ended the war this week. Meanwhile, the U.S. and Israel have in turn rejected a counterproposal from Tehran.
President Donald Trump said U.S. strikes on Iran eliminated what he described as a major threat and did not trigger the economic fallout he had anticipated, vowing the mission is not yet complete.
While speaking at the National Republican Congressional Committee Annual Fundraising Dinner on Wednesday, Trump said the operation was necessary after decades of inaction.
“We had no choice, but I thought it was going to be much worse,” he said. “I thought that energy prices, oil prices, would…go up higher, and I thought the stock market would go somewhat lower.”
“But it didn’t matter to me. It’s short term,” Trump continued. “What we had to do is get rid of the cancer. We had to cut out the cancer. The cancer was Iran with a nuclear weapon. We’ve cut it out. Now we’re going to finish it off.”
