Trump: We got almost everything we wanted in talks, except on Iran’s nukes; ‘I predict they come back and give us everything’
US President Donald Trump says that “we got just about every point we needed except for the fact that they refuse to give up their nuclear ambition.”
Speaking to Fox Business Channel, Trump says that “they want to have nuclear weapons. They’re not going to have nuclear weapons.”
“They came in like they have the cards, but they don’t have the cards,” he says.
“I predict they come back and give us everything we want,” says Trump. “I don’t want 95 percent. I told them. I want everything.”
On his promise to blockade the Strait of Hormuz to Iranian oil, Trump says that it will happen “in a little while, but it’ll be effective pretty soon.”
“We’re going to clean out the strait,” he says. “They’re not going to be able to use the strait in not too long a distance.”
Iran has one thing that it can do, he acknowledges — mining the strait. “Just a mine, we’ll drop one mine, two mines, ten mines, and that will, if you have a ship that costs a billion dollars, you say, well, you know, I’d prefer not getting whacked by a mine and losing my ship.”
He threatens Iran again, saying “I can take out Iran in one day,” and its energy infrastructure in one hour, but he’d prefer not to make good on that threat.
Trump also touts the US relationship with Israel. “Look at the Israeli relationship. Look at the incredible partnership we have on this. As Bibi Netanyahu said, we’re the big brother, and they’re the small brother. It’s been a very effective team.”
