According to CoinMeta, U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Sunday that as long as there is progress in negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear program and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, it would be "highly unlikely" that he would need to order the United States to go to war with Iran again. In an interview with CNN, Trump repeated this statement five times. He said, "It depends on whether they sign a very tough agreement. The answer is, it is highly unlikely that there will be a need to go to war again. Iran is a country that is in decline. This year's data has just been released, with inflation reaching 301%. It is highly unlikely that action will be necessary. If it is necessary, I will do so, but we have already dealt a severe blow to them." He continued, "So, it is highly unlikely that I will need to take action again. Their financial situation is deteriorating rapidly. We have already struck them militarily, and we could completely destroy them."
