Right before the market opens Monday, U.S. President Donald J. Trump makes a post on TruthSocial stating that the United States is in “serious discussions with A NEW, AND MORE REASONABLE, REGIME to end our Military Operations in Iran.” President Trump then adds, expanding on threats he has made before, if the Strait of Hormuz is not immediately opened, “we will conclude our lovely ‘stay’ in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island (and possibly all desalinization plants!), which we have purposefully not yet touched.’ This will be in retribution for our many soldiers, and others, that Iran has butchered and killed over the old Regime's 47 year “Reign of Terror.”

Spain’s Defense Minister Margarita Robles confirmed Monday that the leftist government has banned U.S. military aircraft involved in the Iran War from its airspace as well as air bases across the country, which include the strategically important Rota and Morón Air Force Bases. “This was made perfectly clear to the American military and forces from the very beginning. Therefore, neither the bases are authorized, nor, of course, is the use of Spanish airspace authorized for any actions related to the war in Iran,” Robles told reporters during a press conference Monday.
