Trump Tells Aides He Wants Speedy End to Iran War
(Wall Street Journal) Annie Linskey - President Trump has told associates in recent days that he wants to avoid a protracted war in Iran and that he hopes to bring the conflict to an end in the coming weeks. The president has privately informed advisers he thinks the conflict is in its final stages, urging them to stick to the four-to-six-week timeline he has outlined publicly. Ending the war isn't up to Trump alone. Without a deal or a firm military victory, Trump is likely to face the continued blocking of the Strait of Hormuz.
