So President Trump is right to insist zero enrichment, number one.

Number two.

Iran has a substantial stockpile of enriched uranium.

President Trump is insisting hand over your enriched uranium.

You cannot keep it.

You cannot hold on to it.

You must hand it over.

He is absolutely right to insist on that as well.

And then number three, President Trump is insisting open the Strait of Hormuz and keep it open.

You cannot use this as a choke point.

That is exactly right.

I will say you have some Democrats, some of the media that are saying, oh, they're actually saying Iran won this war because they threatened the Strait of Hormuz.

Look, Iran has engaged in terrorism for 47 years.

They are continuing to engage in terrorism.

I cannot, none of us can promise today that Iran will stop engaging in terrorism.

But what President Trump has done is, number one, dramatically limited their ability to engage in warfare to kill Americans or to kill Iran's neighbors.

The missiles are gone.

The drones are gone.

The Air Force jets are gone.

The air defenses are gone.
