Trump says he will demand conflict compensation from Iran

WASHINGTON, United State (AFP) — United States (US) President Donald Trump said Monday he would seek conflict compensation from Iran as part of any future peace negotiations, citing attacks and atrocities stretching back decades allegedly backed or perpetrated by Iran.

Iran is “asking for compensation for the damage done to them during the last five months of military conflict… I am likewise demanding compensation from Iran, for all of the people that they have killed and gravely wounded with their roadside bombs and many conflicts,” Trump posted.
