US President Donald Trump reaffirmed his stance on the ongoing military campaign against Iran, stating he will not conclude operations until the United States achieves its objectives. Speaking in Florida, Trump highlighted the effectiveness of the US naval blockade on Iranian ports, which has been enforced since April, arguing it is more effective than bombing. He criticized critics who claim the US is not winning, asserting that Iran's military capabilities have been severely diminished. The fragile ceasefire between the US and Iran continues, with the nuclear program being a significant point of contention. Recently, the US rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which is critical for global energy trade, unless the US lifts its blockade. Trump's administration is facing scrutiny regarding its interpretation of the War Powers Resolution of 1973, as Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth indicated that the ceasefire pauses the need for Congressional approval for military actions. This comes after Trump communicated to Congress that hostilities with Iran have been terminated, a move seen as an attempt to bypass legal requirements for military engagement.
