That is not the agreement we have!&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/>Trump also turned his fire on The Wall Street Journal, pushing back against its coverage of his Iran policy. &#8220;The Wall Street Journal, one of the worst and most inaccurate \u201cEditorial Boards\u201d in the World, stated that I \u201cdeclared premature victory in Iran.\u201d Actually, it is a Victory, and there\u2019s nothing \u201cpremature\u201d about it! Because of me, IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/nuclear-weapon\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">NUCLEAR WEAPON<\/a> and, very quickly, you\u2019ll see Oil start flowing, with or without the help of Iran and, to me, it makes no difference, either way. The Wall Street Journal will, as usual, live to eat their words. They are always quick to criticize, but never to admit when they\u2019re wrong, which is most of the time!&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>The remarks come just days after Washington and Tehran agreed to a two-week <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/ceasefire\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">ceasefire<\/a>, halting military actions in a move that was also welcomed by Israel. Trump had signalled acceptance of Tehran\u2019s 10-point proposal on a \u201cworkable\u201d basis, raising cautious hopes of de-escalation even as rhetoric remains sharply charged.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/><\/div>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/world\/us\/they-better-stop-now-trump-warns-iran-over-strait-of-hormuz-tanker-fees\/articleshow\/130155915.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US President Donald Trump early Friday renewed a sharp warning to Iran amid tensions over&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10478,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[25911,967,3611,11784,11000,25910,8326,25912],"class_list":["post-10477","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-ceasefire","tag-donald-trump","tag-iran","tag-mojtaba-khamenei","tag-nuclear-weapon","tag-oil-flows","tag-strait-of-hormuz","tag-the-wall-street-journal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10477","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=10477"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10477\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/10478"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=10477"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=10477"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/d.sheep-mine.ts.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=10477"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
