Trump Has Declared The Complete Destruction Of Iran's Military Capabilities

The US President addressed China, Britain, France, Japan and South Korea.

U.S. President Donald Trump has declared the complete destruction of Iran's military capabilities, but warned that the country is still capable of launching pinpoint strikes against shipping and called on world leaders to join in securing the Strait of Hormuz. In a post on Truth Social, the US leader called on China, Britain, France, Japan and South Korea to send warships to the strategic sea artery for joint patrols.

"Many countries, especially those affected by Iran's attempt to close the Strait of Hormuz, will send warships in conjunction with the United States to keep the strait open and safe," Trump emphasized. He said that even though Tehran's main forces have been defeated and the leadership "completely decapitated," the risk of small-scale sabotage remains: it is "easy for Iran to send one or two drones, launch a missile or plant a mine" along the waterway.

The US president reiterated Washington's determination to finally stabilize the region. "The United States will heavily bomb the coastline and continuously destroy Iranian boats and ships. One way or another, we will soon make the Strait of Hormuz open, safe and free," he concluded.

Earlier, on March 11, Trump allowed the military operation to end soon, arguing that the US forces are performing exceptionally well and they already have "virtually no targets left to hit." However, according to The Wall Street Journal, the president has no immediate plans to end the war, insisting on continuing strikes against Iranian military and proxy forces. Pentagon officials told the publication that the conflict is likely to last at least a few more weeks.

As the WSJ notes, before the war began, General Dan Kane, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, warned Trump that an attack could prompt Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz. Trump recognized the risk but decided to go ahead with the operation, believing Tehran would capitulate before it closed the artery. Two weeks later, Iranian leaders refuse to back down, and the strait has become a key leverage point for Tehran, the newspaper points out.
