US President Trump pushes back on claims he is anxious to end the war; says he has all the time in the world, Iran does not.

  • Iran’s Navy is lying at the bottom of the Sea, their Air Force is demolished, their Anti Aircraft and Radar Weaponry is gone, their leaders are no longer with us, the Blockade is airtight and strong and, from there, it only gets worse — Time is not on their side! 
  • A Deal will only be made when it’s appropriate and good for the United States of America, our Allies and, in fact, the rest of the World.

For those people, fewer in number now than ever before, that are reading The Failing New York Times, or watching Fake News CNN, that think that I am “anxious” to end the War (if you would even call it that!) with Iran, please be advised that I am possibly the least pressured person ever to be in this position. I have all the time in the World, but Iran doesn’t — The clock is ticking! The reason some of the Media is doing so poorly with Subscribers and Viewers is because they no longer have credibility. Iran’s Navy is lying at the bottom of the Sea, their Air Force is demolished, their Anti Aircraft and Radar Weaponry is gone, their leaders are no longer with us, the Blockade is airtight and strong and, from there, it only gets worse — Time is not on their side! A Deal will only be made when it’s appropriate and good for the United States of America, our Allies and, in fact, the rest of the World.

Context

President Trump's remarks suggest a steadfast U.S. stance on the situation with Iran, emphasizing that the pressure is on Iran rather than the U.S. This could impact risk sentiment across markets, particularly in energy (oil prices) and safe havens (like gold), as traders assess the potential for prolonged conflict and its economic implications.
