In brief
In an interview with KCMO radio on Oct. 30, 2026, President Donald Trump said the conflict with Iran would end 'very soon' and that the U.S. would not allow Iran to obtain nuclear arms. Earlier remarks echoed the same theme, though no external confirmation of the conflict’s conclusion has been announced.
On Friday, October 30, 2026, U.S. President Donald Trump told KCMO radio that the conflict between the United States and Iran would end "very soon," according to a live interview reported by Xinhua.
Trump told the station that the situation was coming to a close and added a threat regarding Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
It’s going to end very soon. The United States would not allow Iran to acquire nuclear weapons.
In a separate interview earlier that week, BusinessUpturn reported a slightly different phrasing of Trump’s stance: "We have to make that decision: We blow them up or make a deal," he said, adding that the war would end "very soon, one way or another."
While Trump’s comments have been publicly noted, no other U.S. or Iranian officials have confirmed whether hostilities are indeed winding down or whether the nation’s nuclear stance has been formalized.
At present, the president’s statements remain unverified by independent corroboration beyond the radio interview and the BusinessUpturn report.
