Only one-quarter of Americans believe the United States has won the war with Iran, according to a new national poll from The Economist/YouGov, underscoring the public's lingering skepticism over the conflict. The survey found that just 25 percent of respondents said the U.S. won while most remain doubtful that it emerged victorious. The findings suggest that despite the memorandum of understanding and ongoing diplomatic efforts, many Americans remain unconvinced that the military campaign delivered a clear victory. According to the survey, 66 percent say the U.S. should make a deal to end the war as quickly as possible, compared to 10 percent who say no and 24 percent who are unsure. While the president insists the war likely prevented a larger crisis, the poll suggests many Americans remain unconvinced that the U.S. achieved a clear victory.
