Steve Witkoff on Iran:

We have a 15-point deal on the table that the Iranians have had for a bit of time. We expect an answer from them and it would solve it all.

It would solve the enrichment question, which is we can't have enrichment there today.

It would solve the material question. They have close to 10,000 kilograms of enriched material stockpiled, which they have to give up.

It would solve the stockpiling question and the oversight question.

Q: A few Iranian missiles were intercepted over Türkiye. But this hasn't happened for a while. How?

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, with a smirk:

Am I obligated to answer?

Steve Witkoff on Iran:

We want Iran to join the League of Nations.

German Chancellor Merz on Iran:

Is regime change really the goal? If that is the goal, I do not believe they will achieve it.

In Afghanistan it took 20 years, and the regime change was from one mullah regime to another.

German Chancellor Merz on Iran:

The Americans and the Israelis are getting more deeply entangled in this conflict every single day.

And in my view, they do not have a strategy.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Gulf countries:

We have always urged them toward common sense and patience.

While they listen to us and have been patient so far, some may act differently or offer various interpretations, saying things like:

"It's not as simple as it looks to you. What would you do if 50 or 60 missiles hit you?"

Iranian reporter on Qeshm Island:

Iranian forces stationed on the islands have prepared a “graveyard” for American soldiers.

Many surprises have been arranged on the islands, and not a single one of them will return alive.

Q: Last year you said they were doing the ‘dirty work’ for us — is this still the case, or has it now become too dirty?

Merz: I said that last year on the sidelines of the G7 meeting in Canada.

But at that time, it was about the bombing of military targets — launch ramps and elements of the nuclear weapons program.

And now it is about much more. Now it is allegedly or actually about regime change.

Unexploded Hezbollah FPV drones (including fiber-optic ones) found on the Lebanon front.

Fiber-optic versions can’t be jammed.

Hezbollah has started using them (even against Israeli tanks), but only sporadically so far.

German Chancellor Merz on Iran:

This is not a NATO war.

There would have to be procedures — within NATO there are established processes, and none of them were followed.

German Chancellor Merz on Iran:

What Trump is doing right now is not de-escalation — trying to achieve a peaceful solution — but rather a massive escalation with an open outcome.

BREAKING: Yemen's Houthis:

Our hands are on the trigger, ready for direct military intervention.

We will not allow the Red Sea to be used for hostile operations.

Any escalation will be met with action according to the requirements of the battlefield.

BREAKING: Yemen's Houthis:

We affirm that our fingers are on the trigger for direct military intervention in the following cases:

The joining of any alliances with America and Israel against the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Axis of Jihad and Resistance.

Using the Red Sea to carry out hostile operations by America and Israel; we will not allow that.

The continued escalation against the Islamic Republic and the Axis of Jihad and Resistance.

German Chancellor Merz:

The Greens speak very strongly about equality and women’s rights, yet suddenly become very quiet when it comes to discussing the image and role of women in parts of Islamic societies and openly addressing the realities that exist there.

This is something we need to talk about, address openly, and work to change.

While leaving the area, Trump heard a question about Iran, turned back, and said, “They’re being decimated, and we’re talking.”

Germany is considering restarting idle coal power plants as energy prices surge.

The aim is to reduce reliance on expensive natural gas and keep electricity prices stable.
