President Donald Trump said Monday that the United States is in a strong position in its conflict with Iran, stating that recent military operations have significantly weakened Tehran even as new diplomatic talks are set to begin.

In a post on Truth Social, the presidentwrote, “I’m winning a War, BY A LOT, things are going very well, our Military has been amazing and, if you read the Fake News, like The Failing New York Times, the absolutely horrendous and disgusting Wall Street Journal, or the now almost defunct, fortunately, Washington Post, you would actually think we are losing the War.”

He continued, “The enemy is confused, because they get these same Media ‘reports,’ and yet they realize their Navy has been completely wiped out, their Air Force has gone onto darker runways, they have no Anti Missile or Anti Airplane Equipment, their former leaders are mostly gone (This has been, in addition to everything else, Regime Change!), and perhaps, most important of all, THE BLOCKADE, which we will not take off until there is a ‘DEAL,’ is absolutely destroying Iran.”

“They are losing $500 Million Dollars a day, an unsustainable number, even in the short run,” he added. “The Anti-America Fake News Media is rooting for Iran to win, but it’s not going to happen, because I’m in charge! Just like these unpatriotic people used every ounce of their limited strength to fight me in the Election, they continue to do so with Iran. The result will be the same — It already is!”

President Trump’s comments come ahead of a second round of negotiations aimed at de-escalating tensions. A U.S.delegationthat includes Vice President JD Vance, adviser Jared Kushner and envoy Steve Witkoff is traveling to Islamabad, Pakistan, for talks with Iranian officials.

The upcoming discussions follow an earlier round of negotiations that lasted more than 20 hours but ended without a breakthrough.

With a ceasefire set to expire soon, officials say the talks could be critical in determining whether the conflict escalates or moves toward a negotiated resolution.
