Trump says he thinks war with Iran will end ‘pretty soon’

US President Donald ‌Trump on Thursday told reporters that he ​believed ⁠the war with Iran would be ‌over soon and ‌said the armed forces were experiencing issues with supplies of some weapons. “I ‌think it’s going to end pretty soon. ⁠I don’t think they can go much longer,” Trump said in the Oval Office in a reference to Iran.

Reuters reported on Tuesday that the US Army ​had used up much of its global ‌stockpile of highly accurate long-range missiles during its five-month war with Iran. When asked ⁠about the status of munitions stockpiles, Trump said the country had an almost unlimited ​supply ‌of certain weapons but acknowledged inventories ‌of others were limited.

“We have certain types of munitions that are very powerful, that we ‌have unlimited, ‌virtual unlimited supply. ⁠We have others where it’s ‌a little bit tighter,” Trump said. Trump said US defense companies were ⁠building more production plants, including ​facilities for Patriot and Tomahawk missiles.
