President Donald Trump is set to address the nation in a much-anticipated speech amid the ongoing conflict in the Middle East on April 1. The address, which was not officially announced by the White House, is expected to start at 9pm ET. Trump's speech will be his first prime-time address since the US-Israeli strikes in Iran triggered a Middle East-wide escalation.
Reports citing sources in the White House say that Trump will speak on the Iran conflict, even though the Trump administration has not teased a major announcement. Trump has a packed schedule on Wednesday, starting as early as 8am ET with the Executive Time, followed by an interview with Reuters at 9am ET.
The White House has not announced what Trump will announce in the 9pm address on Wednesday. However, it is being widely reported that Trump is expected to speak on the situation in the Middle East. Trump is expected to reiterate the US's objectives in the Iran war and announce a timeline to end the war within "three weeks."
