Spokesperson Rabbitt briefing [Reuters=Yonhap News]

The White House stated on the 6th (local time) that the U.S. is smoothly proceeding with gaining control of Iranian airspace in its military operation against Iran, which has entered its second week, and anticipates the operation's objectives to be completed within 4 to 6 weeks, according to Reuters.

Caroline Rabbitt, White House spokesperson, said this when meeting with reporters at the White House. Regarding the selection of Iran's next leader, she added, "I understand there are several individuals being reviewed by our intelligence agencies and the U.S. government. I will not comment further."

President Donald Trump has expressed his intention to be involved in Iran's next leadership following the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei in bombings by U.S. and Israeli forces.

Regarding President Trump's statement that day, "There will be no deal with Iran other than 'unconditional surrender'," spokesperson Rabbitt explained, "When Iran is no longer a threat to the United States and it is determined that the objectives of Operation 'Grand Fury' have been fully achieved, then Iran will be in a state of unconditional surrender, whether they declare surrender themselves or not."
