The key facts
- Political scientist Yuri Svetov suggested the US war with Iran could end during 2027
- In his view, Trump will continue pressure on Tehran, and Iran's refusal to accept US terms could lead to escalation
- Trump previously stated he would determine the moment of the war's end himself; Chuck Schumer promised to push for an end to hostilities
A forecast after the elections
US President Donald Trump will try to end the war with Iran within 2027, suggested political scientist Yuri Svetov in a comment to NEWS.ru, which Life.ru cites. In his assessment, the head of the White House expects to secure terms favorable to the United States and to compensate for political losses after the Republicans' defeat in the congressional elections.
Expectations and an alternative scenario
After the Republicans' loss, there are expectations that Washington will end the conflict with Tehran and resume aid to Ukraine. However, the analyst predicted a different scenario: Trump will continue pressuring Iran, and Tehran's refusal to accept US terms could lead to escalation.
The positions of Trump and the Democrats
Earlier, Trump himself stated that he would determine the moment of ending the war with Iran himself, emphasizing the need to achieve the right result. Meanwhile, Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, after his party's victory in the elections, promised to push for an end to the hostilities. Thus, the timing of the conflict's end remains a subject of political struggle within the United States, and Svetov's assessments cited above are a forecast, not an official decision of the administration.
