U.S President Donald Trump said that the ceasefire with Iran was at its “weakest” and on “life support” at an event on Maternal Healthcare at the White House on Monday.
“It is at its weakest… After reading that piece of garbage they sent us… It’s on life support, massive life support,” he told reporters at the Oval Office.
He also informed the participants that he was set for a meeting with a group of generals regarding the conflict.
“They think that I’ll get tired of this, or I’ll get bored, or I’ll have some pressure, but there’s no pressure; there’s no pressure at all. We’re going to have a complete victory,” he said “I have the best plan ever. Iran has been defeated militarily. Totally. They have a little left; they probably built up during this period of time. We’ll knock that out in about a day. But I have a plan. You know, that’s a very simple plan. I don’t know why you don’t say it like it is. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. They’re very dangerous. They’re very volatile.”
Trump had earlier dismissed Iran’s counterproposal to end the two-month war, calling it “unacceptable” on his Truth Social platform. He has now described it as a “piece of garbage” and that he was not going to waste time reading it.
He said when asked about the ceasefire, “I would say I would call it the weakest right now. After reading that piece of garbage, they sent us. I didn’t even finish reading it. They said, I’m not going to waste my time reading it. I would say it’s one of the weakest right now.”
Trump said Iran had told him that the United States would have to dig out the “nuclear dust” at its facilities because it was buried too deep. He also said the process of its removal was a matter of further negotiation.
