U.S. President Donald Trump addressed reporters at Joint Base Andrews before departing on Air Force One for Virginia, where he outlined his position on Iran, ongoing diplomatic negotiations, and recent military activity.
In remarks broadcast by DWS News, he delivered a firm stance on Tehran’s nuclear ambitions and regional influence.
Trump reiterated that Iran’s military capacity has been severely reduced and restated his central requirement of “no nuclear weapons,” adding that the Strait of Hormuz would be reopened “with or without them.” His comments come ahead of anticipated high-level talks involving U.S. officials and Iranian representatives, which are expected to focus on nuclear compliance and regional security.
