💬 🇮🇷🇺🇸🇮🇱🇸🇦 Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei:

We have always been neighbors with the Arab countries and will remain so, but America does not belong to this region.

In these 37 days, everyone has seen that America's only concern is protecting the existence of the Zionist regime, and they place no value on the security of the countries in the region.

We consider ourselves friends of the countries in the region; we have repeatedly warned that the countries in the region, based on their commitments under international law, should refrain from allowing America and the Zionist regime to use their facilities to attack Iran; unfortunately, this did not happen.

💬 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei:

Negotiation is in no way compatible with ultimatums, crimes, threats, and committing war crimes.

The Islamic Republic of Iran and the Iranian nation have a very, very bitter experience of negotiating with the United States, and we did not gain these experiences easily to simply ignore them.

While our enemy increases the volume of its crimes and commits new crimes every day, all our attention must be focused on defending the country.

💬 🇮🇷🇮🇱🇺🇸 Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei:

This war is based more on personal, group, and clique interests rather than a strategic, albeit criminal, basis; the only winner of this Zionist war is apparently the one who has no interest in peace and calm in our region.

End of regional fighting.
Sanctions relief.
Reconstruction support.
Safe transit rules in the Strait of Hormuz.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Iran:

They made a significant proposal. It is not good enough but it is very significant.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: How is the rescued airmen doing?

Trump: They are both doing well.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Iran got a little bit lucky with the F-15s.

You sometimes need luck in war.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We think the new regime in Iran is much smarter than the previous ones.

We had total regime change.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

If I had my choice, what would I like to do? Take the oil.

Unfortunately, the American people would like to see us come home.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

If it were up to me, I would like to keep the oil. I just don’t think the people of the United States would really understand.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

When the Iranian people don’t hear bombs, they get upset; they want to hear bombs.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We sent some guns; they were supposed to go to the people of Iran. You know what happened? The people we sent them through kept them.

I am very upset with a certain group of people, and they will pay a big price for that.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

The Iranian people will fight back as soon as they get weapons.

If they had weapons, Iran would give up in two seconds.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Iran has some missiles left. Some drones left.

Essentially they have no capability.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We have some helicopters with a lot of bullet holes; you probably know that.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We could leave Iran right now, but I want to finish it up.
