White House AI czar David Sacks said on Friday the US should “declare ​victory and get out” of its war on Iran, ‌a rare instance of a prominent figure in Donald Trump’s administration calling for an exit from the Iran conflict.

“This is a good time to ​declare victory and get out,” Sacks, Trump’s ⁠crypto and AI czar, said in an appearance ​on the “All-In Podcast.”

Sacks said the US had degraded Iran’s ​military capabilities.

“I agree that we should try to find the off-ramp,” he added.

“If escalation doesn’t lead anywhere good, then you ​have to think about, well, how do you ​de-escalate? De-escalation, I think, involves reaching some sort of ceasefire ‌agreement ⁠or some sort of negotiated settlement with Iran,” he said.

The US and Israel attacked Iran on February 28. Iran and its ally in Lebanon, Hezbollah, ​have responded with ​strikes on ⁠Israel and other countries in the Middle East.

The war has shaken global markets ​and raised oil prices.

Iran’s UN ambassador ​says ⁠over 1,300 people have been killed in Iran in US and Israeli attacks.

Israel says 12 people have been ⁠killed ​in Israel by Iranian attacks.

The US military says seven of its members have been killed.
