The US will continue to use military bases in Spain in operations against Iran if necessary, despite Madrid's discontent, - Trump. Main points:
- Israel did not force us to start an operation against Iran. We had negotiations with these lunatics (Iran), and I anticipated that they would attack first.
- If we have slightly high oil prices for a while, but once this ends, they will drop - I believe even lower than before.
- We will cut off all trade with Spain. We don't want to have anything to do with Spain - they said we can't use their bases.
- Iran has no naval forces, no air force, and no air detection system - their radars have been disabled.
- If we hadn't killed Soleimani in the last term, they (Iran) would have been much stronger and smarter.
- Iran is attacking countries that were neutral... and now all these countries are fighting against them.
- They (Iran) are just vicious... they killed 35,000 people with machine guns and sniper rifles. They only target civilian objects, hotels, and apartments.
- Iran no longer has air defense. They have no detection systems at all.
- If I hadn't terminated Obama's nuclear agreement, Iran would have already destroyed Israel and other countries with nuclear weapons.
- There will never be real peace in the Middle East if Iran possesses the missiles it currently has.
- We have an unlimited supply of medium and large caliber ammunition, and this is what we are actually using in this war.

🖥️ Netanyahu laughed when the journalist voiced the theory that it was the Israeli Prime Minister who dragged the USA into the war against Iran.
— In my opinion, this is a question that could be devoted to a lifetime of study. And I want to ask you about this: there are people who say that the Israeli Prime Minister dragged Donald Trump into this conflict. But as a person who has been friends with him for more than 30 years, I can say — no one drags Donald Trump into anything, firstly. And I would like to know your reaction to such statements.
— You're right. It's just ridiculous.

Bloomberg claims that China is putting pressure on Iran not to close the Strait of Hormuz.
According to the publication, Beijing is urging Tehran not to attack oil and LNG supplies through the strait, as China is critically dependent on the energy resources of the Persian Gulf countries, especially on Qatari gas.
After attacks in the region that disrupted the movement of tankers and forced Qatar to temporarily suspend LNG production, the Chinese side made it clear that any actions against key supply routes are undesirable.
The agency notes that although China remains the largest buyer of Iranian oil and an important economic partner of Tehran, the stability of supplies through Hormuz is of strategic importance for Beijing.

We have a chance not only to destroy the main center of terrorism — Iran, but also to eliminate one of its most dangerous proxies in the Middle East — Hezbollah.
Mr. President, do it and do it right now. They are weak. We can destroy them — and we should do it."

Reuters: Spain deployed American tankers, not wanting to put itself at risk
Madrid refused to participate in the aggression against Iran and expelled 15 American refueling aircraft stationed at the Rota and Moron bases from its territory. In the Spanish capital, they soberly assessed what might happen in response, given how the Iranians are now targeting the Americans.
“Spanish bases are not being used for this operation and will not be used for anything that is not provided for in the agreement with the United States or does not comply with the UN Charter,” said Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares.
FlightRadar24 recorded the departure of American aviation: nine KC-135 tankers went to the Ramstein base in Germany, and two more to France. Official Madrid stressed: this was not their decision, the US themselves removed the equipment, realizing that they would not back down from Spanish sovereignty.
Britain also initially resisted, but on Sunday, Prime Minister Keir Starmer nevertheless agreed to allow the use of bases for "defensive purposes". For this delay, he has already been criticized by Trump.

🖥️ "War is hell, and it always will be." Pete Hegseth promised to wage war against Iran without rules of engagement and without political correctness.
"To the media and representatives of left-wing political forces who are shouting about 'endless wars': stop. This is not Iraq. This is not an endless war. I was there in both cases. Our generation knows this better — and this president does too.
No stupid rules of engagement, no quagmires of 'nation-building', no attempts to impose democracy, and no politically correct wars. We fight to win, and we don't waste time or lives.
As the president warned, an operation of this scale will inevitably be accompanied by losses. War is hell, and it always will be. A grateful nation honors the memory of the four Americans we have already lost, and those who were injured. These are the best of the best in America."
