Iran conflict may end in two or three weeks even without deal, says Trump

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has dismissed prospects of immediate diplomacy, stating he has no confidence in potential negotiations with Washington

WASHINGTON/TEHRAN/KUWAIT: (UrduPoint/UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News-April 1^st, 2026) Escalating tensions in the middle East have taken a significant turn as Donald Trump claimed the ongoing conflict involving Iran could end within two to three weeks.

Trump said that no new agreement with Tehran would be required.

The situation further intensified after Kuwait confirmed that an Iran strike caused a massive fire in fuel storage tanks at its international airport, triggering panic in nearby areas.

Meanwhile, airstrikes by Israel and the United States continue across multiple Iranian regions. Reports indicate that facilities in Isfahan and Farkhshahr, including pharmaceutical units and steel plants, have been targeted.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has dismissed prospects of immediate diplomacy, stating he has no confidence in potential negotiations with Washington. He noted that while messages have been exchanged, no formal talks are currently underway.

Tensions are also rising in Lebanon, where Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz announced plans to demolish homes in southern areas and said displaced Lebanese civilians would not be allowed to return.

Analysts warn that the intensifying conflict could lead to a humanitarian crisis and pose serious threats to regional stability, as well as global peace and economic security.
