💬 🇺🇸 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.

💬 🇺🇸 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.

💬 🇮🇷 Iran’s Ghalibaf:

In the upcoming negotiations, if the American side is ready for a real agreement and to grant the rights of the Iranian nation, they will see readiness for an agreement on our side as well.

However, in the current conflict, we have shown them that if they intend to use negotiations as a futile show or a deceptive operation, we are prepared to secure our rights through faith in God and reliance on the capabilities of our nation.

💬 🇺🇸 Senator Graham on Iran:

If they say no now, that tells you how crazy they are.

💬 🇺🇸 Senator Graham on Trump's rhetoric:

If you’re talking to stone-cold homicidal maniacs, you need to speak the language they can understand.
