In a speech before the UN, U.S. President Donald Trump defended the necessity of attacking Iran to prevent it from obtaining nuclear weapons. He claimed that as a result, oil prices will decrease significantly.

Donald Trump addressed world leaders at the 81st UN General Assembly, where he justified his decision to attack Iran to prevent the country from acquiring nuclear weapons. According to reports, Trump stated that after this war, "oil prices will plummet."

The U.S. president presented himself as a successful leader, highlighting his direct approach to problem-solving. "I don't believe in letting dangers grow," Trump added, referring to the escalating tensions in the region and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump also mentioned the possibility of an agreement with Iran that could turn the country into one of the most prominent in the Middle East. However, he warned that if they do not sign, Iran will face severe consequences. "I will lead them to hell, with no chance of survival," he said.

In his speech, he highlighted the oil exploitation agreement between the U.S. and Venezuela, emphasizing that together they control 60% of global crude. "America is rising again," he concluded, underscoring his vision of a promising future for his country.
