WASHINGTON, April 2, 2026 U.S. President Donald Trump will soon deliver a national address on the Iran conflict as American forces approach their military goals, according to his statement Wednesday. Trump asserted that the U.S. is nearing completion of its military objectives in Iran, stating in German: *"Die USA seien auf dem Weg, ihre militärischen Ziele sehr bald zu erreichen."* The remarks follow massive rocket attacks from Iran earlier Wednesday, as reported by Israeli sources.
The president warned of potential strikes on Iran’s power plants if negotiations fail, declaring: *"sollte es keine Einigung mit dem Iran geben, würden die USA Kraftwerke des Landes angreifen."* U.S. forces have already targeted over 12,300 sites in Iran during the conflict.
Meanwhile, oil prices surged amid escalating tensions, with Brent crude for June delivery jumping more than 6% to $107.48 per barrel Thursday. The Iranian president has sent a direct message to the American public, though its contents remain undisclosed.
In a separate development, Trump is reportedly considering withdrawing the U.S. from NATO, according to multiple corroborated sources. The White House has not confirmed this potential policy shift.
