According to a report by the US “Wall Street Journal” on September 9, local time, US Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Rubio and other senior US officials privately warned US President Trump that the conflict between the US and Iran may continue until the end of Trump's presidential term, that is, January 2029. The report said that these private warnings were in stark contrast to Trump's public statements. Trump said on the 9th local time that he expected the war to end “immediately” after the November US midterm elections, and claimed that Iran was trying to influence the election, but its resistance would not last long. In response to this revelation, a White House spokesperson responded to the Wall Street Journal saying, “Trump has destroyed Iran's military capabilities and weakened Iran's economy. Only Trump himself knows what he will do and when.”
