Trump: Iran file will be resolved very quickly... either they give us everything we want or they will cease to exist

- Tehran will never possess a nuclear weapon... and we now have full control over the Strait of Hormuz

US President Donald Trump said the Iran file will be resolved “very quickly, one way or another,” stressing that Tehran will never acquire a nuclear weapon and that preventing it from doing so was the reason for the US military move in the region.

Trump added that Iran faces two options, saying: “Either it gives us everything we want, or it will cease to exist.”

He noted that the volume of oil currently passing through the Strait of Hormuz exceeds pre-war levels, asserting that the United States now has “full” control over the strait thanks to the US military.

On the energy front, Trump said that Russia agreed today to send millions of barrels of diesel to the United States, urging oil refiners and retail traders to immediately begin lowering prices amid what he described as a massive supply of oil.

In another matter, Trump said the United States deserved the Nobel Peace Prize, claiming that not awarding it to the US is “further proof” that Norway and other parties are taking advantage of his country.
