Trump informs aides that he hopes to end the Iran war as soon as possible

Gold Finance reports that on March 26, U.S. President Trump told his aides that he hopes to avoid a prolonged war with Iran and aims to end the conflict within the next few weeks. The problem is that Trump does not have a simple way to end the war, and peace negotiations are still in the early stages. During discussions with external political allies, his attention sometimes shifts to other topics, including the upcoming midterm elections, as well as his decision to send immigration officials to the airports and push for legislation in Congress to tighten voter eligibility requirements. A source familiar with the matter revealed that Trump told a colleague that the war was distracting him and preventing him from focusing on other priorities. Another person who recently spoke with Trump said the president seems ready to shift his focus to the next major challenge, though Trump did not specify what that is. Some allies hope he will focus on the Cuba issue, while his close advisors want him to pay attention to the issues most important to voters: the cost of living, which has been worsened by the war. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stated, “President Trump is very good at handling multiple tasks at once and managing several challenges simultaneously. The president is fully committed to achieving military objectives against Iran. The president’s only goal is victory.” (The Wall Street Journal)
