Trump: If Iran fires upon American ships near the Persian Gulf or the Strait of Hormuz, they will be " wiped off the face of the Earth"

Golden Finance report, May 5th, U.S. President Trump threatened on the 4th during an interview with Fox News Channel that if Iran fires on U.S. ships near the Persian Gulf or the Strait of Hormuz, it will be “erased from the surface of the Earth.” When asked about the readiness of the U.S. military, Trump said that there are currently only two options: either Iran sincerely reaches an agreement, or the U.S. will ultimately have to restart military actions. He stated that the U.S. military’s preparations are underway intensively, all base supplies are sufficient, and the U.S. military can mobilize and use these resources at any time. When asked about the possibility of negotiations with Iran and achieving success, Trump said that compared to the past, Iran’s attitude has become more softened, and under U.S. blockade and continued pressure on Iranian ports, Iran has “shown some flexibility.” (Xinhua)
