Eye Opener: Trump says Iran war will end soon

President Trump says an Iran war will end soon and expressed indifference about disruptions to the Strait of Hormuz, telling allies to "get your own oil." The comment suggests Trump's administration is signaling a shift away from guaranteeing Middle Eastern energy security, a decades-long cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy in the region. Trump's remarks indicate his willingness to reduce American military commitments abroad, a central theme of his 2024 campaign and first term. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical waterway through which roughly one-third of global seaborne oil passes, making Trump's dismissal of its security implications significant for energy markets and U.S. relations with Gulf allies. The briefing also covered NASA's preparation for the Artemis II launch, a crewed moon mission.
