Trump also stated that the United States would impose immediate sanctions on Iran.
“The United States will immediately impose additional punishing economic sanctions on the Iranian regime,” he said.
“These powerful sanctions will remain until Iran changes its behaviour. In recent months alone, Iran has seized ships in international waters, fired an unprovoked strike on Saudi Arabia and shot down two American drones.”
