According to a video on Fox News, on Tuesday May 11, 2026, President Donald Trump repeated his firm assurance that Iran will not obtain a nuclear weapon, framing the statement as an absolute certainty and insisting that the United States will prevail in the conflict regardless of the direction from which the outcome comes.
Trump delivered the remarks during a press gaggle before boarding his flight to China for a planned summit with President Xi Jinping.
The comment came as reporters pressed the president on the state of negotiations and military operations, and whether he was confident the conflict would end on American terms.
In his words, President Trump said, “No matter how you cut it, we win. Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. We will win it peacefully or otherwise,” he said.
The statement echoed remarks Trump had made earlier in the same gaggle, and served as a summary of his overall position on the conflict, combining a promise of victory with a restatement of the non-negotiable condition at the heart of American policy.
Trump said that Iran’s military has been fully dismantled, describing the destruction of its navy, air force, radar systems, anti-aircraft defenses, and senior leadership.
He stated that the blockade imposed against Iran has operated at one hundred percent effectiveness and that the country has no remaining military capacity to resist.
The president addressed questions about the economic cost of the war, particularly rising inflation and energy prices, but maintained that these conditions are temporary and directly tied to the conflict.
He predicted a significant reduction in oil prices and a surge in stock market performance once the war concludes.
Trump also noted that approximately 85 percent of Americans, according to a poll he cited, understand and support the position that Iran must not be allowed to acquire a nuclear weapon….See More
