The top people in that government are insane in the brain.

There is no oil blockade on Cuba per se.

The status quo in Cuba is unacceptable, and we will be addressing it—but not today.

There is no problem between the Lebanese government and the Israeli government.

Israel doesn't claim any land in Lebanon belongs to them.

And by and large, I think a peace deal between Lebanon and Israel is eminently achievable and should be.

The primary responsibility for "Project Freedom" is on the United States, because we're the only country that can project power in that part of the world the way we're doing now.

This is a favor to the world because it's their ships that are stranded.

It's their fuel supplies, humanitarian aid, and fertilizer that are stranded.

Part of the negotiation process has to be not just the enrichment but what happens to this material that's buried deep somewhere that they still have access to if they ever wanted to dig it out.

The world is a victim of Iran.

But the people of Iran are daily victims of the regime...

The Strait of Hormuz does not belong to Iran; they don’t have a right to shut it down.

This cannot be normalized.

Operation Epic Fury is concluded — we achieved the objectives of that operation.

We're not cheering for an additional situation to occur. We would prefer the path of peace.

President Trump would prefer a deal.

We can have mass deportations, but do it in a smarter way, which we're doing.

Based on the request of Pakistan and other Countries, the tremendous Military Success that we have had during the Campaign against the Country of Iran and, additionally, the fact that Great Progress has been made toward a Complete and Final Agreement with Representatives of Iran, we have mutually agreed that, while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect, Project Freedom (The Movement of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz) will be paused for a short period of time to see whether or not the Agreement can be finalized and signed.
