“We’ll be out very soon,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “We are leaving because we have no reason to continue doing this.”

The president said the U.S. does not need to reach an agreement with Iran in order to withdraw from the country. “They need 15-20 years to rebuild the damage we’ve done to them,” he said.

Trump said on Tuesday that military action in Iran is still ongoing. “Last night, we destroyed a large number of missile manufacturing facilities,” he said.

The president also addressed the issue of rising gas prices, with the current average price already above $4 per gallon. Trump said that once he ends the war with Iran, American consumers should see gas prices fall.

“Yes, and our country will no longer be threatened by nuclear weapons,” when asked about the price increases, Trump responded. “They will also feel safer.”
