United States President Donald Trump on Wednesday hinted at stronger action towards Iran, while making a veiled jibe at his allies in regards to the Strait of Hormuz.
“I wonder what would happen if we “finished off” what’s left of the Iranian Terror State, and let the Countries that use it, we don’t, be responsible for the so called “Straight?” That would get some of our non-responsive “Allies” in gear, and fast!!!” the US President said in a post on Truth Social.
He further alleged in a separate post that Iran was considered to be the “number one state sponsor of terror.” “Remember, for all of those absolute “fools” out there, Iran is considered, by everyone, to be the NUMBER ONE STATE SPONSOR OF TERROR,” Trump said, adding that the US was “rapidly putting them out of business.”
NATO making ‘foolish mistake’ on Iran: Trump
Trump’s post came a day after he said he was “disappointed” in NATO, adding that he thought the alliance was making a “foolish mistake” in their stance on Iran.
The US President had, a day earlier, said that NATO had informed America that they “don’t want to get involved” in the military operations in Iran.
“The United States has been informed by most of our NATO “Allies” that they don’t want to get involved with our Military Operation against the Terrorist Regime of Iran, in the Middle East, this, despite the fact that almost every Country strongly agreed with what we are doing, and that Iran cannot, in any way, shape, or form, be allowed to have a Nuclear Weapon,” Trump said on Truth Social.
However, the US President claimed the US had achieved “military success” in Iran, saying they did not need NATO’s help. “Because of the fact that we have had such Military Success, we no longer— WE NEVER DID! Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea,” Trump said.
