বাংলাAs the conflict with Iran reaches a critical juncture, U.S. President Donald Trump has signaled a desire to conclude the military campaign, despite the Iranian regime remaining intact. Reports from the Wall Street Journal on Monday (March 30, 2026) suggest that the White House is willing to end the war within a four-to-six-week timeline, even if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.
