Trump reassures allies, vows US protection amid escalating Iran conflict.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday reiterated Washington’s commitment to protecting its regional partners, declaring that the United States would not allow Arab allies or Israel to “get hurt or fail” amid the ongoing conflict with Iran.
The remarks came during a high-profile national address in which Trump outlined progress in the war and defended U.S. military actions. He emphasized that key allies in the Middle East, including Gulf nations and Israel, remain central to American strategic priorities, particularly as they face continued threats from Iranian missile and drone attacks.
Trump asserted that U.S. forces had significantly weakened Iran’s military capabilities, claiming that its ability to launch missiles and drones had been “dramatically curtailed.” He added that the United States would intensify strikes in the coming weeks to ensure that remaining threats are neutralised, describing recent operations as decisive and effective in achieving core objectives.
