Iran will have to conclude a "proper deal" with the US, otherwise Washington will achieve victory very easily. The American president stated this in a conversation with radio host Hugh Hewitt.
"One way or another, we will win. Either we will conclude a profitable deal, or we will achieve a very easy victory from a military point of view," Trump said.
He added that it would take Iranian authorities 20 years to rebuild the country, even if the US and Israeli operation ended right now. And even in such a case, Iran will never be the same again, the Republican noted.
"And they've run out of storage space [for oil]. They say that in two weeks they will have a natural oil explosion, after which it will be practically impossible for them to recover.
You know, their oil... if you cut off oil underground — and the mechanical part too, but specifically underground — it tends to literally explode in almost 100% of cases and simply destroy everything around. And you will never be able to extract that oil again," the US president said.
After that, according to him, it is possible to recover no more than 30-40% of the previous volumes of the resource, but "it will never be like it is now." When this happens, it causes enormous damage to the country's oil system.
Trump had previously rejected Iran's proposal for a three-stage peace agreement. The US president called it "unacceptable."
