United States President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he didn’t believe Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, who also happens Ali Khamenei’s son, could “live in peace”.As the war in the West Asia rages on with no off ramps in sight, Trump also said that it’s possible he would be “willing to talk with Iran but that it depends on the terms”, Fox News reported.Asked in an interview on Monday evening about the possibility of negotiations with Tehran, Trump told Fox he “heard Tehran wanted to talk badly”.Eralier, Trump said that the Iran war was going to “end soon”, without providing any specific timeline. He also warned Tehran that if they tried “anything cute”, the US would end the nation. He called the Iran war a “short term excursion.”“It’s going to be ended soon, and if it starts up again they’ll be hit even harder,” Trump told a news conference in Florida.”We took a little excursion because we felt we had to do that to get rid of some people. And I think you’ll see it’s going to be a short-term excursion,” he said.During a CBS interview, he said that the war was “very complete” and warned Iran against doing “anything cute”.“They’ve shot everything they have to shoot, and they better not try anything cute or it’s going to be the end of that country,” the US president said during a CBS interview. “If they do anything bad, that would be the end of Iran and you’d never hear the name again,” he added.“I think the war is very complete, pretty much. They have no navy, no communications, they’ve got no air force,” he had said.Though he declared that US and allies had won, he added that it was not enough and would go “forward more determined than ever to achieve ultimate victory”.“We’ve already won in many ways, but we haven’t won enough. We go forward more determined than ever to achieve ultimate victory that will end this long-running danger once and for all…The United States of America is the greatest and most exceptional nation in human history and will not be threatened by evil terrorists and lunatics any longer,” he said.He further said that if US and Israel did not attack Iran, Tehran would have initiated the attack.
