BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 7. The U.S. military operation against Iran may come to an end in the near future.

This was stated by U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House.

He expressed hope that oil prices would decline once the conflict is over.

"I think the war will end fairly soon," Trump said, adding that, in his opinion, Iran "will not be able to hold on much longer."

The U.S. president also said he is involved in negotiations with Tehran.

"I think things are moving in the right direction. It could happen very soon," Trump said, referring to the possibility of reaching an agreement between the United States and Iran.
