Trump says US ‘looking strongly’ at Strait of Hormuz The US president has spoken to reporters in Maryland about the war in Iran. Here’s some of what he said: “We have very good news on the war front. Namely, they are absolutely being destroyed. Iran is being absolutely decimated.” “They [Iran] are pretty much at the end of the line. Doesn’t mean we’re going to end it immediately. But they are. They’ve got no navy. They’ve got no air force. They’ve got no anti-air traffic, anything. They have no systems of control. We’re just riding free range over that country.” “And now we’re going to look very strongly at the straits.The straits are in great shape.” “The main thing is we have to win this. Win it quickly, but win it … Most people say it’s already been won. It’s just a question of when – when do we stop? We don’t want to let it regrow.” “We can hit sections of Tehran and other places but if you do it, it’ll be almost impossible for them to rebuild their country. And we don’t want that. But we can hit electric; we could take apart their electric capacity within one hour and it would take them 25 years to rebuild it. So ideally, we’re not going to be doing that.” |
