American President Donald Trump has stated that he does not intend to withdraw the approximately 50,000 troops deployed for the war against Iran until a definitive resolution of the conflict is reached. The statement was made in an interview published on Sunday, after it was recorded on Friday.
The American leader maintains that only after the conclusion of a peace agreement could he accept a relaxation of sanctions against the regime in Tehran, reports Agerpres. The official did not rule out that he could also release some blocked Iranian assets.
“I don’t consider myself in any danger. We have the best defense and the best attack ever seen,” said Trump.
In the opinion of the US President, a potential withdrawal, even partial, of the contingent from the Middle East would be a hasty decision, if negotiations fail.
