Speaking to reporters on Friday, Trump emphasized that the United States was not actively at war with Iran, despite the mounting military tensions between the two countries. He differentiated this situation from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, asserting that the United States had imposed what he described as \"the greatest blockade in military history\" against Tehran.\n\nTrump also claimed that Washington has made significant progress in its dealings with Iran, suggesting that the country was open to reaching an agreement. He noted that American forces had conducted limited strikes against Iranian military equipment, stating that a recently developed Iranian air defense system was destroyed within a short span of time, possibly just 15 minutes or 5 minutes.
