"Whether we make a deal or not, it makes no difference to me — and the reason is because we've won," Trump said. He dismissed media coverage as "Fake News" while defending his military victory claims.
The conflict has affected global shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil transport route. Stock markets have been watching the talks closely for signs of whether tensions will ease.
Trump's comments suggest he may not feel pressure to compromise in negotiations since he views the US position as already successful.
These talks could end or continue the conflict that has disrupted global oil markets and trade routes. Trump's stance suggests he may not push hard for a peace deal since he believes the US has already won.
Watch for results from the trilateral talks in Pakistan and any Iranian response to Trump's comments.
