US President Trump: “We’re not finished at all with Iran”

Source Fxstreet

United States (US) President Donald Trump said during a press conference at the White House on Tuesday that Washington could intensify its military campaign against Iran, including possible strikes on the underground Pickaxe Mountain site. Trump also dismissed the prospect of immediate negotiations with Tehran and reiterated that the blockade would remain in place.

Key takeaways:

We’ll be hitting the Pickaxe Mountain area pretty soon, very heavily.

Iran hasn’t seen anything yet. We’ve been nice.

Iran is probably trying to impact the elections through Hormuz.

We’ll hit any site that Iran is considering for nuclear operations.

We’re not finished at all with Iran. We’re not leaving right now. We have had a big impact on Iran.

I would speak to Hezbollah.

Nobody gets through the blockade.

I have no interest in meeting Iran until they are ready.

Iran wants to meet. We have no interest. Iran desperately wants to meet.

On Israel: “We will be looking at issues in pilot zones.”

On Canadian tariffs: “It is not related to the wildfires. It is because they have been tough on our farmers and on us.”
