Brazilian President Lula on Cuba:

In Cuba, the world watches in horror as collective punishment is imposed on 10 million people by an illegal economic and energy embargo.

Brazilian President Lula on organized crime:

We do not need aircraft carriers guarding our waters.

We need cooperation to block the flow of weapons and money that feeds organized crime.

That’s the spirit of the proposal that I personally handed to the U.S. president.

Brazilian President Lula:

The fight against corruption shall remain relentless, no matter who it hurts.

No one is above the law!

An F-16 fighter jet has reportedly crashed at the U.S. Spangdahlem Air Base in western Germany on Tuesday afternoon.

Witnesses reported seeing a jet rapidly descend before a large column of black smoke appeared near the runway.

Local reports say two aircraft had taken off and one crashed, with the pilot apparently ejecting safely.

Brazilian President Lula:

We will not allow the enemies of democracy, whether domestic or foreign, to undermine popular will.

Brazilian democracy belongs to Brazil! Brazil continues to be a sovereign country.

Nobody will turn us away from this path.

Trump:

I can report to you with pride that America is back, and our country is stronger today than ever before.

Trump:

Our country is doing better than ever before, and our future is very, very bright.

Trump:

Our economy is the envy of the world.

Trump:

The entire world is being lifted by the wealth, strength and momentum of a newly energized U.S.A.

Trump:

I have no interest in leaving dangers to grow for another day. I do not believe in letting problems fester. They only become harder to solve.

So, while others have talked, I have acted.

While others have spoken of peace, I have made peace.

While others have ignored threats, I have confronted them.

Trump on Iran:

They were the bully of the Middle East, but they are the bully no more.

From the first day I entered the political arena, I have been unwavering:

I will never allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

Trump on Iran:

Upon taking office last year, I opened negotiations with Iran and offered them full economic cooperation in exchange for ending their nuclear program and support for terror.

But they refused. That was a big mistake.

Trump on Iran:

They made a missile capable of hitting Europe, and they were very proud of it. I hope the Europeans realize that.

Iran’s goal was to complete their nuclear bomb behind this conventional ballistic missile shield.

If they had succeeded, that wicked regime would have been free to spread terror and death forever.

Trump on October 7th:

We will mark the third anniversary of the October 7th attack in Israel.

Terrorists funded by Iran tortured, mutilated, and killed 1,200 innocent civilians, including dozens of Americans and many babies — little, tiny, beautiful babies.

Iran’s Supreme Leader celebrated that massacre and called it a "service to humanity."

Trump on Iran:

The regime slaughtered over 72,000 of its citizens this year.

Just imagine such a vile regime empowered to carry out large-scale terror attacks from behind a nuclear shield.

This was the reality we had to confront—a reality that far too many preferred to ignore. They all ignored it.

Trump on Strait of Hormuz:

The United States Navy has recently escorted more than one billion barrels of oil out of the Strait of Hormuz, and more oil is flowing than at any point since the start of the war.

We’re taking 22, 25, 30, 32, and 37 ships out, respectively, every single day, every single night.

Trump on Iran:

I have a big decision to make. Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before, maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East or even the world?

Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again?

Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness for generations?

But I believe we’ll make a deal right after the election, because it doesn’t make sense for them not to.

They’re waiting to see how I do in the midterm election. What they don’t realize is that I’m not running. I did that already and won in a landslide.

Trump on Iran:

I gave absolutely no credence, and will not give credence, to the election when it comes to Iran. It doesn’t even enter my mind.

The only thing that does is that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.

Trump on Iran:

The cowards and traitors would love to say the United States is low on ammunition, but that’s not true.

We have more munitions than we could ever possibly think of using, and we’re building them at levels we have never done before. We are adding to our stockpiles faster than ever before—top-of-the-line stuff.

In addition, in the very near future, massive munitions plants will be opening. There are 18 of them being built by the greatest defense companies in the world right now—18 under construction.

Trump on Iran:

I called on all nations to join us in enforcing the complete economic isolation of Iran until they stop their attacks on commercial shipping, relinquish their nuclear ambitions, and cease their support of terror.

The terrorist regime is behaving badly, not because they are strong and confident, but because they are weak and desperate.

Trump:

We ended the war in Gaza, saving thousands of lives.
