Trump administration officials: Iran war will end within weeks

Trump administration officials said today they expect the conflict in Iran to end within weeks or sooner, while economists expressed concerns that the oil rift in the Middle East could trigger a recession.

"I think this conflict will probably end in the next few weeks. It could happen sooner than that and we'll see a recovery in supplies and a reduction in prices after that ," Energy Secretary Chris Wright said.

Kevin Hassett, director of the White House National Economic Council, echoed this sentiment in an interview.

"We expect the global economy to experience a major positive shock once this is over," he said.

Trump administration officials also sought to downplay concerns about Iran's effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, saying other countries would likely help reopen the strategic waterway.

US Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz told CNN that talks are ongoing with countries that could join the US in sending naval forces to secure the route.

Wright said all US military assets and those of other countries will work to open the Strait. /CNA
