"I think it was a very, very strong threat from the President of the United States that led the Iranian regime to cave to their knees and ask for a ceasefire and agree to reopening the Strait of Hormuz."
"The message that the White House believes Trump made Iran cave to their knees seems unlikely to be well-received inside Iran ahead of talks taking place in Islamabad this weekend."
"I understand the questions about the President's rhetoric, but what the President cares most about is results. His very tough rhetoric and his tough negotiating style is what has led to the result that you are all witnessing today."
Trump's threat against Iran was credited by his spokesperson for forcing the Iranian regime to capitulate. The press secretary stated that the president's strong rhetoric resulted in Iran asking for a ceasefire and agreeing to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Reporters questioned the appropriateness of Trump's language regarding civilian targets, but the press secretary emphasized that the president prioritizes results over rhetoric. The situation is expected to impact upcoming talks involving U.S. officials in Islamabad.
