💬 🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump on a possible regime change in Iran:

“We are negotiating with them both directly and indirectly. We have envoys, but we are also holding direct talks. And, as you know, two days ago they agreed to send eight ships, then added two more, making it 10 vessels. And now, today, they have given us, as a gesture of respect, 20 oil tankers — very large oil ships — that will pass through the Strait of Hormuz. And all of this will begin tomorrow morning.

Over the next few days, there will probably be many ships — I think we will reach a deal. I’m almost certain. But it’s possible we won’t. However, we have had a regime change. We are dealing with completely different people than before. It’s an entirely different group of people. So I would consider it a regime change. And, honestly, they have been acting very reasonably.”

Well, they agree with us on the plan. I mean, we asked for 15 points. And for the most part, we’re going to ask for a couple more. And to show that they are serious, they gave us all those ships [with oil].”

But if they don’t do that, they’re not going to have a country.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: Iran controlling the Strait of Hormuz and charging tolls, what do you think about that?

Trump: We could close that up in two minutes. We could close that up so fast your head would spin.
