President Donald Trump released a statement Thursday evening expressing satisfaction with the emerging Iran deal, asserting that oil is flowing, Iran will never obtain a nuclear weapon, stock markets are surging, employment is at a record high, and the cost of living is improving. The statement, reported by Israeli media channels, included the line 'Our country is strong, safe, and more respected than ever,' and concluded with 'You're welcome!'
President Donald Trump released a new statement Thursday evening touting the nuclear agreement with Iran as a success, according to reports from Israeli news outlets. Trump asserted that oil continues to flow, Iran will never acquire a nuclear weapon, stock markets are surging, employment is at record highs, and prices are falling — adding that the United States is 'strong, safe, and more respected than ever.' The statement concluded with an emphatic 'You're welcome!'
The remarks are the latest in a series of presidential pronouncements The Zioneer has tracked throughout Thursday. Earlier on Thursday at 11:38 Jerusalem, Trump issued a version citing surging stock markets and record employment as deal benefits. By 18:54 Jerusalem, he expressed similar satisfaction with the emerging accord. The current statement, reported at 21:28 Jerusalem, reiterates the economic claims already present since the earliest thread items, with no additional specifics on the deal's terms or signing timeline.
As The Zioneer reported Thursday at 21:10 Jerusalem, Trump also called for a full ceasefire across all fronts and cited falling oil prices as market approval. Background reporting from earlier this week noted Trump told the G7 summit on Wednesday Jun 17 that the deal is 'very strong' and 99.9% ensures no nuclear weapons; on Jun 11 he signaled finalization was possible 'within days.' The thread has consistently attributed statements to Trump via Israeli media channels, without an on-record White House or Iranian confirmation of the accord's final text.
The exact venue and timing of the official signing remain unconfirmed, and no Iranian official has publicly endorsed the details Trump has cited.
