US President Donald Trump said he doesn't need any help to defeat Iran.

Mr Trump said at his White House press conference on Tuesday evening: “As you know, our situation with Iran is very good. I just have to make the final decision how we want to win; Do we want to win in a pleasant way or in an unpleasant way?

He added: "In any case, our situation is very good and we don't need any help."

Referring to the increase in fuel prices due to the restrictions on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, Mr. Trump said: "People are not happy with the gasoline situation and say it is a heavy price." "I don't want to sound trivial, but it's actually a small price to pay to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon."

Mr Trump also said he had contacted the heads of several countries to see which of them "would be willing to help America".

According to him, he received a negative answer from the heads of these countries; "I checked them. "I contacted various presidents and prime ministers to ask if they would be willing to help us, and they said no."
