President Donald Trump said Friday that the United States will not reach a peace agreement with Iran unless the country offers what he described as “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!”
In a post on Truth Social, Trump outlined a vision for Iran’s future after such a surrender, saying the United States and its allies would help rebuild the country.
“After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before,” Trump wrote. “IRAN WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. ‘MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!).’ Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Trump’s comments came a day after he spoke with TIME magazine’s Eric Cortellessa for a profile of the ongoing U.S. military operation in Iran that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and other top officials over the weekend.
Cortellessa described Trump’s reaction in the moments after the Saturday strike that killed the ayatollah.
“I’ve killed all their leaders,” Trump said. “That room is gone.”
When Cortellessa asked whether Americans should fear the possibility that the conflict could expand to attacks inside the United States, Trump acknowledged the risk.
“I guess,” he said.
The president added: “But I think they’re worried about that all the time. We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things. Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”
