U.S. President Donald Trump targeted Iran, England, and Cuba. Trump stated that he did not want to use ships surrounding Iran and openly warned England, which plans to establish new collaborations with China. Regarding Cuba, Trump said, "They will not survive."
U.S. President Donald Trump answered questions from the press as he entered the gala screening of the film "Melania," which was shot in honor of his wife, Melania Trump, at the Kennedy Center.
"I HOPE WE DON'T HAVE TO USE THE SHIPS"
In response to a question about whether he had any discussions with Iran in the past few days or if he was planning to do so, Trump replied, "I had a discussion and I am planning to have a discussion." Warning the Tehran administration, Trump stated, "Right now, we have very big and very powerful ships going to Iran. It would be great if we didn't have to use them."
The U.S. President emphasized that Iran needs to do something regarding its nuclear weapons program and not targeting protesters, saying, "I told them two things. First, no nuclear weapons, second, stop killing the protesters. They are killing thousands of people. Two weeks ago, I managed to stop 837 executions, but they will need to do something now."
A WARNING TO ENGLAND
Meanwhile, Trump also responded to a question regarding England's plans to establish new collaborations with China. Referring to England, the U.S. President stated, "It is very dangerous for them to do this. It is even more dangerous for Canada to do business with China. Canada is not doing well right now."
CLAIM THAT "CUBA WILL NOT SURVIVE"
Trump also argued that Cuba is a "failed state," saying, "You should feel bad for Cuba. Cuba treats its people very poorly. I am not trying to suffocate Cuba, but they probably will not survive anyway." Additionally, Trump took concrete action against Cuba following the operation in which Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was kidnapped. He signed an executive order imposing tariffs on goods imported from countries that sell or provide oil to Cuba.
