"An entire civilization will die tonight and never be restored. I don't want it to happen, but it probably will," Trump stated. In his subsequent remarks, he also hinted at the possibility of a different outcome. "However, now that we have a complete and total regime change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, something revolutionary and wonderful might happen. Who knows?" the U.S. president noted. He added that the resolution of the situation will be known very soon. "We will find out tonight, in one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the world. Forty-seven years of blackmail, corruption, and death will finally come to an end. God bless the great people of Iran," Trump said. Recall, over the past weekend, Trump stated that Iran has until Tuesday at 8:00 PM Eastern Time to reach an agreement on opening the Strait of Hormuz.
