Trump: Iran war to end post-elections; Tehran seeks to sway US vote

President Trump publicly asserts the US-Iran conflict will conclude after the November midterm elections, a claim he has reiterated multiple times. This contrasts with reports from the Wall Street Journal, citing anonymous senior White House officials, who warn the conflict could persist through the end of his term in 2029. The discrepancy between public statements and internal assessments creates significant uncertainty regarding the conflict's actual trajectory and duration.
