President Donald Trump said Tuesday that Iran has given the United States a “present” recently that is related to the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf.The president claimed the gift arrived Tuesday and that it was oil and gas related, but did not provide specifics on what the mystery present was or what prompted the prize.
“They gave us a present, and the present arrived today,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “It was a very big present, worth a tremendous amount of money, and I’m not going to tell you what the present is, but it was a very significant prize.”
Trump said the gift signaled that the United States was negotiating and working with the “right people” in Iran after a conflict broke out in the Middle East last month that resulted in the death of Iran’s former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
“They gave it to us, and they said they were going to give it, so that meant one thing to me: we’re dealing with the right people,” Trump said. “We have, really, regime change. You know, this is a change in the regime, because the leaders are all very different than the ones that we started off with that created all those problems.”
