Donald Trump, the president of the United States, spoke again about the possibility of a military attack on the Islamic Republic or reaching an agreement with Tehran and emphasized that Washington's goal is to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons forever. On Saturday, November 2, Trump told reporters in Florida, in response to a question about the progress of planning for a possible attack on Iran: "We're thinking about doing it, maybe tomorrow." "You really think I'm going to tell you if I'm going to do it or not? " he added immediately.
Without announcing a specific date for military action, the American president said: "There is a possibility that I will do it. It is also possible that we will reach a good, big and beautiful agreement."
Trump said that officials in the Islamic Republic want an agreement, but expressed doubts about Tehran's compliance with any possible agreement, saying: "The problem is: Will they comply with the agreement? ".
Referring to the B-2 bomber operation against Iran, he said he could have carried out that operation a year ago and ended the military operation, but he said the Islamic Republic could have found a way to build a nuclear bomb within one to two years. Trump stressed: "I have to do something to solve this problem forever. This is the only reason why I continued in this job."
He said about the options facing the US government: "The question is: do we finish the job, which will not be difficult, or do we agree with them? "And it depends on them."
In another part of his speech, the American president claimed again that all Iranian fighters and ships were destroyed during the American military operation. He announced the number of destroyed ships as 259 and said that they were all "at the bottom of the sea". Trump also claimed that Iran's radar systems had been destroyed and praised the performance of the US Navy. Referring to Iran's economic situation, he said that he read a report that morning about Iran's inflation reaching 301%. Trump also claimed that more oil now passes through the Strait of Hormuz than before the start of the war.
