US President Donald Trump claimed Iran’s military is “completely defeated,” calling it a “failed nation” with nonfunctional navy and air force. He warned Iran will “pay the price” for stalled talks and hinted at US strikes on power plants and bridges. He also referenced earlier strikes after an Apache incident near Strait of Hormuz and praised the US naval blockade.
US President Donald Trump made a series of strong claims about Iran’s military capabilities in a post shared on June 10 (IST), describing it as “a complete and total mess” and asserting that the country’s armed forces had been “completely defeated.”
In the post, Trump claimed that key branches of Iran’s military, including its navy and air force, were no longer functional and referred to Iran as “all talk and no action.” He further wrote that the country had lost its regional influence, calling it “the Bully of the Middle East” and claiming it was “dead.”
He also said that Iran had delayed reaching a negotiated settlement that would have been favourable, adding that it would now “have to pay the price” for the delay.
In a separate exclusive conversation with Trey Yingst of Fox News, Trump said the U.S. is “getting close” to ordering new strikes against Iranian power plants and bridges. He said the potential action was in response to Iran “tapping the United States along” amid prolonged and stalled negotiations.
