On June 21, President Donald Trump addressed the nation following U.S. military strikes on three key Iranian nuclear sites—Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. He declared the operation a “spectacular military success,” aimed at crippling Iran’s nuclear enrichment capabilities and reducing the threat posed by what he labeled “the world’s number one state sponsor of terror.”
In his four-minute speech from the Oval Office, Trump emphasized the need for Iran to choose peace, warning that further attacks would be more severe if they did not comply. He referenced Iran’s history of hostility towards the U.S. and Israel, linking it to the deaths of over a thousand American soldiers and numerous casualties in the Middle East, allegedly linked to Iranian military figures like General Qasem Soleimani.
Trump expressed gratitude towards Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu and commended the Israeli military for their cooperation. He lauded the U.S. military for their precision and capability, stating that the operation was unprecedented in its difficulty and effectiveness. He assured the public that while this operation had been a landmark success, there were more targets available should tensions escalate again.
The President urged for rapid peace, emphasizing that without it, Iran could face catastrophic consequences. He concluded his remarks with blessings for the military, the Middle East, Israel, and America, reinforcing the seriousness of the situation while expressing hope for a peaceful resolution. Tomorrow’s press conference by military officials was also mentioned as a point for further discussions on the situation.
