White House on Iran:

We are holding up our end of the ceasefire.

There were attacks on commercial vessels, and we responded.

Violence will be met with violence.

White House:

Many Americans are extremely concerned with how far left the Democrat Party is moving.

You see these candidates—this is not your granddaddy's Democrat Party. These are communists. The president is right to call them that.

They want to abolish the police, and they want to abolish private property.

These are radical Marxist ideas that have never worked in the history of the world.

We want to see a prosperous Gulf and a prosperous Iran that cooperates constructively with the Gulf states, with a high level of trust and cooperation — instead of what these wars have left behind.

I fully believe that Russia and America should have a strong relationship.
