We are fully prepared to resolve all disputes with the Islamic countries of the region.

The Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran have not carried out any missile or drone operations against the UAE in recent days, and if any action had been taken, we would have announced it decisively and clearly.

Therefore, we deny the report of the UAE's Ministry of Defense.

It is announced to the officials and statesmen of the UAE that your country should not become a nest for Americans and Zionists and their military forces and equipment as an Islamic land, betraying the Islamic world and Muslims.

You should not trap yourselves in the snare and trap of the Americans and Zionists.

Regrettably, the UAE today has become one of the main American and Zionist bases as enemies of the Islamic world and the main cause of insecurity in the region, and a place for the deployment of a large part of their military forces and equipment.

We warn that if any action is taken from the soil of the UAE against islands, ports, or coasts of Iran, we will give a crushing and regretful response.

Almost 23,000 civilians from 87 different countries are trapped inside of the Gulf and left for dead in the Persian Gulf by this Iranian regime.

For more than two months now, these innocent sailors and commercial crew members have been stranded out at sea because Iran is conducting something that's not just criminal; it's criminal for sure... it's piracy.

Many nations privately and some publicly have asked the United States to help free their ships and to restore freedom of navigation in the Straits of Hormuz in this critical artery of global trade.

President Trump, as he always does, stepped up and answered the calls for their help.

Trump has directed the U.S. military to guide these stranded ships to safety, to provide a protective bubble under which they can operate and move product and get themselves out of there.

This is the first step towards reopening the strait and bringing this regime's last-ditch act of economic arson to a close.

Today, inflation in Iran is 70%, and their currency is in total and complete freefall.

Under this president, under President Trump, the U.S. will help our friends; we're going to stand up to rogue regimes like the one in Tehran, and we're going to be unashamed to use our power and our abilities to project military power in the service of our national interest above all else.

Any foreign financial institution or commercial actor that enables Iran sanctions evasion is going to face secondary sanctions exposure and a loss of access to the U.S. financial system.

Our preference is for the Strait of Hormuz to be opened the way it's supposed to be opened, back to the way it was, where anyone can use it, no mines in the water, nobody paying tolls.

That's what we have to get back to, and that's the goal here.

The top people in that government are insane in the brain.

There is no oil blockade on Cuba per se.

The status quo in Cuba is unacceptable, and we will be addressing it—but not today.

There is no problem between the Lebanese government and the Israeli government.

Israel doesn't claim any land in Lebanon belongs to them.

And by and large, I think a peace deal between Lebanon and Israel is eminently achievable and should be.

The primary responsibility for "Project Freedom" is on the United States, because we're the only country that can project power in that part of the world the way we're doing now.

This is a favor to the world because it's their ships that are stranded.

It's their fuel supplies, humanitarian aid, and fertilizer that are stranded.

The operation is over—Epic Fury; we are done with that stage of it.

We're now on to "Project Freedom."

Part of the negotiation process has to be not just the enrichment but what happens to this material that's buried deep somewhere that they still have access to if they ever wanted to dig it out.

That has to be addressed, and that's being addressed in the negotiation.
