White House AI czar David Sacks publicly called for the U.S. to "declare victory and get out" of its conflict with Iran, advocating for de-escalation and a negotiated settlement.
He argued the U.S. has already degraded Iran's military capabilities and that continued escalation is not productive.

White House AI czar David Sacks said on Friday the U.S. should "declare victory and get out" of its war on Iran, a rare instance of a prominent figure in Donald Trump's âadministration calling â for â an exit from the Iran conflict.
"This âis a good time to declare victory and get âout,"Sacks, Trump's crypto and AI czar, said in an appearance on the"All-In Podcast."
Sacks said the U.S. had degraded Iran's militarycapabilities. "I â agree that âwe should try to find the off-ramp," headded. "If escalation doesn't lead anywhere â good, then you haveto think about, well, how do you de-escalate? De-escalation, Ithink, involves reaching some sort of ceasefire agreement orsome sort of negotiated settlement with Iran," he said. The U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on February 28. Iran andits ally in Lebanon, âHezbollah, have responded with strikes onIsrael and other countries in the Middle East.
âThe âwar has shaken â global markets and raised oil prices. Iran's U.N. ambassador says over 1,300 people have beenkilled in Iran âin U.S. and Israeli attacks. Israel says 12people have been killed in Israel by Iranian attacks. The U.S.military says seven of its members have been killed.
