Trump says Iran war was justified despite Republican election losses

nur.kz (Russian) —

US President Donald Trump acknowledged that the conflict with Iran cost Republicans victory in the congressional elections, but stated the war was justified, saying "we had no choice." Trump agreed with Vice President Vance's assessment that the Iran conflict was the main reason for the Republican Party's defeat in the midterm elections. He noted the war briefly raised gasoline prices, which likely contributed to the loss. Trump said he would make the same decision again, arguing that Iran could not be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons. He added he had expected oil prices to rise even more significantly than they did.
