President Donald Trump has predicted that the Iran War will soon come to an end, countering concerns about dwindling U.S. military weapon stockpiles due to the prolonged conflict.


On August 6, local time, Trump stated at the White House, "When the war ends, oil prices will go down again. I believe the war will end soon. It cannot last long."


He added, "I am involved in negotiations, and we are doing very well. A ceasefire could happen soon."


However, he did not provide specific details regarding ceasefire negotiations or discussions between Iran and Oman about navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.


In response to questions about U.S. military ammunition stockpiles, Trump emphasized, "We have very strong ammunition, and some can be supplied virtually without limit. We possess a vast amount of ammunition."


Earlier, Reuters reported, citing multiple sources, that the U.S. military's use of long-range precision missiles during the Iran War has raised concerns about ammunition shortages. Trump's comments were made in response to these reports.
