After saying the “very profitable” US strikes on Iranian nuclear amenities at Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan, United States President Donald Trump addressed the nation.
Right here is the complete transcript of his speech on Saturday night:
A short while in the past, the US army carried out large precision strikes on the three key nuclear amenities within the Iranian regime: Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan.
Everyone heard these names for years as they constructed this horribly harmful enterprise. Our goal was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capability and a cease to the nuclear menace posed by the world’s primary state sponsor of terror.
Tonight, I can report back to the world that the strikes had been a spectacular army success. Iran’s key nuclear enrichment amenities have been fully and completely obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Center East, should now make peace.
If they don’t, future assaults will probably be far larger and so much simpler.
For 40 years, Iran has been saying, “Dying to America, loss of life to Israel”.
They’ve been killing our individuals, blowing off their arms, blowing off their legs with roadside bombs – that was their speciality.
We misplaced over a thousand individuals, and a whole lot of hundreds all through the Center East and around the globe have died as a direct results of their hate, specifically, so many had been killed by their common, Qassem Soleimani.
I made a decision a very long time in the past that I might not let this occur.
It won’t proceed.
I wish to thank and congratulate Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu.
We labored as a workforce like maybe no workforce has ever labored earlier than, and we’ve gone an extended solution to erasing this horrible menace to Israel.
I wish to thank the Israeli army for the fantastic job they’ve achieved and, most significantly, I wish to congratulate the good American patriots who flew these magnificent machines tonight, and all the United States army on an operation the likes of which the world has not seen in lots of, many many years.
Hopefully, we’ll not want their providers on this capability. I hope that’s so. I additionally wish to congratulate the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Workers, Common Dan “Razin” Caine – spectacular common – and all the good army minds concerned on this assault.
With all of that being mentioned, this can not proceed.
There will probably be both peace or there will probably be tragedy for Iran far larger than we’ve witnessed over the past eight days.
Bear in mind, there are numerous targets left. Tonight’s was probably the most tough of all of them by far, and maybe probably the most deadly, but when peace doesn’t come shortly, we’ll go after these different targets with precision, velocity and ability. Most of them may be taken out in a matter of minutes.
There’s no army on the planet that might have achieved what we did tonight, not even shut. There has by no means been a army that might do what passed off just a bit whereas in the past.
Tomorrow, Common Caine, Secretary of Protection Pete Hegseth, may have a press convention at 8am (12:00 GMT) on the Pentagon, and I wish to simply thank everyone, and specifically, God.
I wish to simply say, “We love you, God, and we love our nice army. Defend them.” God bless the Center East. God bless Israel, and God bless America.
Thanks very a lot. Thanks.
