We are not committed to any agreement that doesn't fully guarantee Israel's security.

Even if the United States and Iran reach an agreement, if Iran acts to renew its nuclear program or advance its ballistic missile program, we will attack.

We're working to ensure that within three or four years, the Iranian threat to the Strait of Hormuz and the Houthis' threat in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait will no longer be relevant.

If you look at the map, it's possible to build a land corridor from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Kuwait to the Mediterranean and on to Europe, and we're working to ensure that this route passes through Israel.

This week I also spoke with my counterpart, Greece's Energy Minister, to use all the tools at our disposal, together with the United States, to ensure the corridor runs through Israel.

Türkiye wants the route to pass through its territory, and perhaps Egypt does as well, but the best and safest place is the State of Israel.

Today we need to understand that the Turks are building military bases deep inside Syria. We have Turkish warships in the Port of Tartus.

We have Turkish bases near Palmyra. In practice, educational programs in Syria are also being run by Turkish schools. This is extremely significant.

Beyond the moves that Erdogan and Fidan are leading in Syria, they also want to establish a Turkish military presence along the Israel–Lebanon border.

Pedro Sánchez is one of the most anti-Israel heads of government. During the first hostage deal, he announced Spain's recognition of a Palestinian state.

So we asked: Who is Sánchez's strongest political opponent? Who speaks out against Hamas? Who understands the threat of radical Islam?

The answer was Santiago Abascal, the leader of Vox. We brought him to Israel—to the City of David—for a meeting with the Prime Minister.

Macron stabbed us in the back and twisted the knife tightly.

Meanwhile, RN speaks out against Hamas, opposes the decisions of the ICJ and the ICC, supports Israel's position, and supports the Jewish community.

“Massive attack coming… wait, never mind, they want to negotiate.” That’s theater diplomacy on loop.

Using bullying + broken promises + fake news as leverage is a failed strategy.

Acknowledge the facts and fulfill your commitments. We don’t need more theater.

They expected the country to collapse because of the pressures they applied.

They applied this pressure and made our economy more difficult day by day, causing us to face problems.

Now, in their analyses, they are surprised as to why we haven't collapsed. We've had meetings with industrialists, the Chamber of Industry, the Chamber of Commerce, and guilds.

With their help, we are trying to remove the obstacles from their path. They have come to our aid to solve the problems.

This doesn't mean we have been able to solve all the problems. Sanctions are a reality. When we cannot sell our oil, it means we will not have foreign currency, or we will have less.

When we have less, naturally we will face problems. And we must find a way to mitigate these problems as much as we can. This will happen, but it's difficult for it to happen quickly.

We were supposed to face power, water, and gas outages and such in winter.

The discussion was that in winter we would have neither electricity nor heating. But with cooperation, companionship, and management, it didn’t happen.

And again, it was the people who helped us a lot in their electricity and gas consumption.

Our relationship with our neighbors is much better than in the past, and neighboring countries are cooperating very well with us.

In fact, one of the plans in this war was to incite unrest and tensions from the northwest and southeast. They claimed that people would enter from those sides to cause disturbances.

The regional countries themselves did not allow anyone to enter easily from those directions and cause unrest. This is a very significant point; our neighbors did not permit people to come across and create disturbances and instability.

Not only did they refrain from doing so, but they also assisted us.

Any temporary routes will be without any impediments — meaning no approvals or permissions and no tolls or charges.

The Strait of Hormuz is an international waterway and no party controls the lanes or the ability to transit through them.
