Iranian Foreign Minister (35:26)
Schedule and at levels that people have never seen before. Actually, we're destroying more of Iran's missiles and drone capabilities every single hour, knocking them out like nobody thought was possible. As soon as they set off a missile, within four minutes, the launcher gets hit. They don't know what's happening. But we have the greatest military anywhere in the world. Their Navy is gone. 24 ships in three days. That's a lot of ships. They're anti aircraft weapons are gone. So they have no air force, they have no air defense. All of their airplanes are gone, their communications are gone, missiles are gone, launches are gone. About 60% and 64% respectively. Other than that, they're doing quite well. I say what's left. But they're tough and they want to fight and they're calling, they're saying, how do we make a deal? I said, you're being a little bit late and we want to fight now more than they do. We've had 47 years depending on the way you count it, but 47 years of horror with this group. And you know when you see somebody walking down the street street without their legs, without the arms, whose faces so badly affected and hurt. It mostly came from 95% Soleimani and Iran and we other presidents lived with it. I didn't live with it. And so our people are doing a great job. Again, the greatest military in genuine scene. Thank you. Thank you very much. And yesterday my administration announced decisive action to help keep down the oil prices, including offering political risk insurance for tankers transiting into the Gulf. As you know, pretty dangerous territory. Further action to reduce pressure on oil is imminent. And the oil seems to have pretty much stabilized. We had it very low, but I had to take this little detour. If it's okay with everybody, Scott, it's okay with you Scott. Someone has to put up with it. He said, you have to do this now. I said, I have to do it, Scott. Right. But it's been very strong. And everybody, including Scott, everybody feels we had really no choice. It was going to, they were going to hit us if we didn't hit the them because they're crazy. And in the long term, the actions we're taking will dramatically increase the stability of the region and oil prices and stock markets and everything else. You know, we set the all time record in history with the dow going to 50,000. So Dow is at 50,000. It was supposed to be maybe if we were lucky, within by the end of my presidency in four years. Years. And we did it in my first year. We did the S&P 500. We did that in a period of less than a year. And that was even tougher than the Dow, they said so it wasn't going to happen. But we have a great country. We have a country that's never done this well. We've had tremendous success in so many different ways. I built the military and rebuilt it in my first term and we're using it more than I'd like to use it, to be honest with you. But when we used it, we found out it certainly did work. When we look at Venezuela, when we look at the first attack, Midnight Hammer in Iran, which really set the stage for what we're doing right now, it's been pretty amazing. And I'm once again calling on all members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, the military and the police to lay down their arms. They're only going to be killed. And now is the time to stand up for the Iranian people and. And help take back your country. You're going to have a chance after all these years to take back your country, accept immunity. We'll give you immunity, and we'll be giving you really the right side of history, because that's what it is. So you'll be perfectly safe with total immunity, or you'll face absolutely guaranteed death. And I don't want to see that. They don't want to see it even, either. We also urge Iranian diplomats around the world to request asylum and to help us shape a new and better Iran with great potential. It's a country with great potential. There's much better future for Iran. It's now beginning. It's going to be, I think, a great future. And the United States will ensure that whoever leads the country next, Iran will not threaten America or its neighbors, Israel, anybody. If you look at what happened, they had missiles aimed at all of these other countries, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, uae, many others that weren't really involved very much. And they had missiles aimed. Well, they were aimed there long before this ever started. They were going after the entire Middle East. And then we came along, we blew up their party. So we have phenomenal people. I want to thank all of the people that have been involved. Martin, Marco, you've been doing a fantastic job, and you've been doing a fantastic job on a place called Cuba. And a Rod came in before I said, hey, do you want to come up to a little award? He's gone to plenty of award ceremonies. Thank you. A Rod, big fan. But what's happening with Cuba is amazing. And we think that we want to finish this one first, but that will be just a question of time before you and a lot of unbelievable people are going to be going back to Cuba, hopefully not to stay. We want you back and we don't want to lose you. We don't want to make it so nice that they stay. But some people probably do want to stay. They love Cuba so much. I hear it all the time. That was another one that wasn't supposed to happen happened. Venezuela is going great. It's been stabilized. We have a wonderful person as your president elect Delsey Rodriguez, and she and her staff have been doing a fantastic job working with us. We're taking out hundreds of millions of barrels of oil and it's going to Houston and various other places where it's being refined. And we're sending them back far more money than they've made in many years. And actually very shortly it'll be more money than they've ever made. And Venezuela is working. So we've had a lot of, a lot of countries in places that truly love, you would say football, I would say soccer. But these are all countries that love football slash soccer. And so I think the group likes it. And if you'd like, you could sit. I know I'm a very exciting speaker, but you can sit down if you'd like. Okay. Looking at everybody standing.
