"All U.S. ships, aircraft, and military personnel, along with additional ammunition, weapons, and everything else deemed appropriate and necessary for lethal combat operations and the destruction of an already significantly weakened enemy, will remain in place in Iran and its vicinity until a REAL AGREEMENT has been fully implemented," the U.S. leader stated.
Trump emphasized that "if, for some reason, this does not happen—which is unlikely—then 'the shooting will begin'—on a larger scale, better, and more powerful than anyone has ever seen before."
"This was agreed upon long ago, and despite all the false rhetoric to the contrary—NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS, and the Strait of Hormuz WILL REMAIN OPEN AND SAFE. Meanwhile, our great army is building up its strength and resting, in fact eagerly awaiting its next conquest. AMERICA IS BACK!" he concluded.
