Trump Iran speech transcript text.

A transcript of President Donald Trump’s speech on U.S. airstrikes on Iran, which he delivered at the White House on Saturday night. Trump said, “Our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world’s number one state sponsor of terror.” He said, “I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace. If they do not. Future attacks would be far greater and a lot easier.” The president added that he wants to “congratulate Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu” of Israel.
