Trump:

The Strait will be open.

Reporter: You’re not going to let Iran toll the strait, are you?

Trump: We are not gonna let them do it. Nobody knows if they are doing that. If they are doing that, we will not let that happen.

Trump:

The Strait of Hormuz will open up automatically… Otherwise, they make no money. We will open the strait anyway.

Reporter: What is your backup plan if there is no deal?

Trump: You don’t need a backup plan.

Iran’s Ghalibaf:

My companions on this flight.

Trump:

We are not doing much talking.

Reporter: What does a good deal look like for you?

Trump: No nuclear weapon, number one. I think it has already been regime change—we never had that as a criteria.

No nuclear weapon—that is 99% of it.

Trump:

We have other countries coming up to help with the Strait of Hormuz.

We will have that open fairly soon.

Iran’s Ghalibaf:

Unfortunately, our experience with negotiations with the Americans has always been accompanied by failure and breach of commitments.

Twice within less than a year, in the middle of negotiations-despite the goodwill of the Iranian side-they attacked us and committed numerous war crimes.

We have goodwill, but we do not have trust.
